Dr. Ruben Puentedura is the Founder and President of Hippasus, a consulting firm based in Western Massachusetts, focusing on transformative applications of information technologies to education. He has implemented these approaches for over thirty years at a range of K-20 educational institutions, as well as health and arts organizations. He is the creator of the SAMR model for selecting, using, and evaluating technology in education, which currently guides the work of multiple learning projects worldwide. He is also the author of The EdTech Quintet, a categorization of the core technology toolset required for education derived from the Horizon Report. Both models are components of his evolving toolkit for Black Swan and antifragile thinking, part of an ongoing project that he has been developing for the past decade. As an Innovator in Residence at ASU’s ShapingEDU Project, he is currently directing an initiative on Black Swan Thinking, comprising both research and design workshops. Other facets of his work explore new directions in mobile computing, digital storytelling, learning analytics, and educational gaming, focusing on applications in areas where they have not been traditionally employed.
