Webinar

DeathtoStock_Medium6Overview

Having a window into the disruptions that will reshape learning over the next decade allows us to respond creatively rather than to fear how we can prepare learners for an uncertain future. Especially, when education is potentially facing a decade of deep disruption of the scope that Amazon brought to retail and iTunes brought to the music industry. The question is: Are we ready to respond effectively to create a diverse learning ecosystem in which educators, learners, and families create many different combinations of learning resources and experiences to reflect their particular needs, interest, and goals? Or, are we part of a doomed educational landscape?

In this session participants will:

  • examine key trends shaping the future of learning.

  • assess the implications that trends are having on today’s education system.

  • explore Recombinant Education forecasting.

  • evaluate strategic possibilities and opportunities these changes present for educators.
