Abstract
The Melbourne InnovatEd program at the University of Melbourne supports innovation in educational technology, addressing the crucial need for innovative solutions in teaching and learning in higher education. By fostering a holistic approach, InnovatEd empowers educators and students to identify problems and devise impactful solutions. Established in 2019, the program offers a Bootcamp and an Incubation Funding Program, providing space, tools, support, and funding pathways. The Bootcamp engages participants in developing innovation skills, while the Incubation Program offers tailored support to bring ideas to fruition. Over five years, InnovatEd has supported 23 teams, enhancing teaching and learning through EdTech. The program has successfully cultivated connections within the University and industry, facilitating real-world project development and fostering an entrepreneurial mindset. Innovation programs in large organisations, such as InnovatEd, face challenges such as ensuring technology sustainability, providing post-program support, and addressing cultural barriers. InnovatEd aims to establish robust support structures and promote continuous innovation, essential for improving education in the age of AI.
