Make space for some brand new ideas. "Unlearning It's easier for companies to come up with new ideas than to let go of old ones"
Planets
My very eductaed mother just served us nice pizza (no pluto now--it's not a planet)
what color is the yield sign (too funny most said yellow but it changed in 1971 to red and white) Shows why we have to "unlearn" some things
We have to unlearn that we are a "two year college" (high school, students finish in 1 year, or 3 years)
information is scare, seat time equals learning, set beginnings and endings, its easier online,
Trends
Traditional classroom is gone
Blended learning will emerge (almost everything will include e-Learning)
Institutions need to re-engineer physical space
E-Learning gies new meaning to snow days for some Central New Jersey students
Like Ford analytics of gas mileage with real time immediate feedback -- opportunity to do the same with students (looking forward to costs coming down so more can be done from a learner perspective)
Credit hours will be challenged
Credentialing will be challenged
?By 2030 over 50% of Colleges will Collapse (Thomas Frey)
The total amount of borrowing reached a record $2.84 trillion, with student loans reaching $1 trillion
284,000 college graduates, including 37,000 advance degree holders in the US were working minimum wage jobs in 2012 (wall street journal)
Education built on same system as trust as banking industry (based on trust and students aren't trusting system now as a degree doesn't necessarily mean a job)
No need for textbooks (which were created to augment the curriculum being presented)
Open source, open courses, open tests (more and more being created every day)
More collaboration--peer review process still important
Flatworld knowledge (pay faculty to develop textbook but also does more integrated peer review process versus Merlot where it is volunteer recommendations)
We will play games to earn a degree (game-based learning increasing and possibly creating a digital divide)
