Noor Hanim Rahmat

Abstract


Many assumed innovation has to do with technology and new inventions. That is far from the truth. Innovation can be as simple as finding new ways of doing things. Millennials learn differently from their older generation peers. The exposure of technology has caused  many millennials to have poor communications skills. They are also reported to have shorter attention span For millennials , learning needs to be fun and relaxing. Innovative ideas need to be identified from a list of recognizable facets of innovation. This paper reports a literature review of different facets of innovation in education. The objective of this paper is to explore how the environment influence innovation in learning. This paper also looks into the barriers and facilitating factors for innovation in education.
