Over the course of the past 15 years, Ian has worked with clients in more than 40 countries and made more than 7,000 presentations. He typically speaks to between 300,000 and 400,000 people a years.

Ian has written or co-written six books, 9 educational series and had more than 200 articles published in various journals.

He was also the creator and co-developer of TechWorks, the internationally successful K-8 technology framework; and was the catalyst of the NetSavvy and InfoSavvy information literacy series. He has been a Contributing Editor for several journals and magazines. But Ian is an educator first and foremost. His focus has consistently been on the compelling need to restructure our educational institutions so that they become relevant to the current and future needs of children.

His presentations and articles emphasize many of the practical issues related to ensuring that change is meaningful. As a registered educational evangelist, his self-avowed mission in life is to ensure that children are properly prepared for the future rather than society's past. As a result, his material tends to focus on many of the pragmatic issues that provide the essential context for educational restructuring.
