The 19th ASEF Classroom Network (ASEFClassNet19) has reached an exciting milestone, marking the completion of its Team Learning phase. Building on the foundations of the Self-Learning journey, over 150 educators and school leaders from 42 countries across Asia and Europe have come together to collaborate, innovate, and co-create.

Working in diverse, cross-cultural teams and supported by experienced mentors, participants designed 32 Innovative Teaching Practices (ITPs) under the theme “Future-Ready Teaching: Human Agency in the Age of AI.” These practices reflect a shared commitment to reimagining education, placing human agency, ethical considerations, and inclusive design at the heart of AI-enabled learning.

The Team Learning phase has been a dynamic space for exchange, where educators brought together perspectives from different education systems, challenged assumptions, and co-developed practical, classroom-ready solutions. The result is a collection of ITPs that not only integrate AI meaningfully but also empower learners to think critically, act responsibly, and navigate an increasingly complex digital world.

The journey now moves into its next phase: implementation. Over the coming months, participants will pilot their co-designed ITPs in their own classrooms over a period of 4–5 weeks. This stage will allow educators to test, adapt, and refine their approaches in real-world contexts, while continuing to learn from peers across borders.

ASEFClassNet19 is more than a professional development programme, it is a growing community of educators committed to shaping the future of teaching and learning together. As these innovative practices come to life in classrooms across Asia and Europe, they hold the potential to create meaningful impact for both teachers and learners.

Stay tuned as we follow this journey from collaboration to classroom transformation.
