Future Learning: No More 3Rs?



With some of the new Coursera courses and other offerings on the horizon, I sometimes wonder if the average kid will even need a brick and mortar college education to be successful.

What will the world of further education look like in 10, 20, 30 years?
I don't know if I can even imagine it.

  2. I actually think about this quite often. I am positive that we are on the brink of several major changes in regards to schools, especially colleges. I am not sure exactly how that will play out, but I am excited to see the changes.

  3. Thanks for visiting ladies! It's so exciting isn't it? I'm also particularly hopeful that these offerings will somehow lead to less college debt. We are quite lucky that we have only one child but many of our friends have at least two. Scary!

  4. Great video - thanks! He summed up the primary skills I think will be important - how to read, how to find information, and how to be discerning about that information.

  5. Great video! Thanks for sharing. Even in 2014 (belated discovery), it's pretty incredible to wonder the possibilities.
