About Ryan Elwell Ryan Elwell is passionate about uplifting and inspiring the education community.As Director of Digital Pedagogies and Online Safety Education, Ryan works closely with educators, parents, carers, school leaders, and students to drive positive change in the digital learning landscape.Although the title lacks the term “Human-Centred,” Ryan brings a strong focus on this approach to all his initiatives, ensuring that human values are embedded in every conversation and program.
A firm believer that technology should enhance rather than overshadow human expertise, Ryan emphasises that it’s people who are the real “rock stars” of education.Technology, he believes, serves best as a tool to amplify teachers’ skills and bring out the best in students.By listening to educators and developing personalised support, Ryan ensures that edtech aligns with the genuine needs of schools and classrooms.
Ryan’s goal is to continually refine his work and contribute to a more supportive, human-centred education environment, encouraging individuals to shine—whether with technology or, when necessary, without it.
