Cambridge University Press works on behalf of Cambridge University to promote academic research and advancement around the world. In 2003, the institution formed a partnership with the international technology firm Hitachi Solutions to further this goal. Cambridge-Hitachi facilitates corporate social responsibility programs for companies across a wide range of industries, helping to develop educational outreach curricula in the United Kingdom.
Cambridge-Hitachi strives to create vibrant designs that are representative of its client companies and engaging for students. It develops intuitive multimedia content for use with interactive whiteboards and provides comprehensive lesson plans to help teachers make the most of these resources. Cambridge-Hitachi develops digital content in four key academic areas: STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math), PSHE (personal, social, health, and economic education), personal finance, and sustainability.
The organization conducts comprehensive research to develop its educational products, including one-on-one interviews with teachers and professional curriculum developers. It also facilitates focus groups for schools, gaining a better understanding of educators’ desired content through open discussions and written exercises. Before finalizing a product, the partnership submits its concepts to teachers and students for testing and feedback. Furthermore, Cambridge-Hitachi collaborates with several writers and thought leaders in the education sector, including experts such as Pie Corbett, Anita Straker, and Education for Employability.
