This report highlights innovative technology-supported pedagogic models in science, technology, engineeringand mathematics (STEM) education, explores what to expect from collaboration in a designed network, and,thereafter, sketches lessons for promoting educational innovation through collaboration.How can technology-supported learning help to move beyond content delivery and truly enhance STEMeducation so that students develop a broad mix of skills? How can collaboration be encouraged and used to helpdevelop, spread, accelerate and sustain innovation in education? The HP Catalyst Initiative – an education grantprogramme by the Hewlett Packard (HP) Sustainability and Social Innovation team – is used as a case study toanswer these questions.
