About Stephen Reid

Stephen is a passionate advocate of both play as a powerful learning mechanism, and technology as a tool for learning. Actively pioneered much of the work the field of games-based learning, he has spent his career researching and developing curriculum content and pedagogical practices that transform learning for students and teachers worldwide. Working in over 70 countries and with the most disenfranchised learners in the world, Stephen believes in the complete democratisation and decolonisation of learning and that all learning should be relevant, meaningful andas close to the real-world as possible and so designs lessons that draw students into environments with experiences that take place on farms and in museums, to travelling classrooms in shipping containers, as well as building an entire school using a single 3D printer in a South African township. Stephen now leads the learning team at the Endless Foundation, a global not-for-profit that uses game development to bring curriculum learning and career development skills to learners worldwide.
