I am honored to have been interviewed about our work at the National Laboratory for Education Transformation, www.NLET.org, by Wes Smith of the www.PresidentsForum.org, the up and coming consortium of change-agent institutions. See the interview here.
The basic message in my President’s Forum video blog is that the online, edtech, work-tech era, as we know it, is coming to an end.
Starting roughly in 1998, it was mechanical on the web. Code was pounded out to make courses and program digitally instead of in-class.
Unfortunately, online learning, ed and work tech came up without the “smarts” that started to define digital culture all around us in the consumer and social spaces online and in apps.
Now with AI-first projects the world changes again. People, programs and jobs will exist in sophisticated data lakes to reach aligned objectives for each.
