Future Work Skills 2020

Paula King, Ph.D.'s insight:

Skills needed in 2020 are on the minds of many.  This report captures the important intersection of sense-making, virtual collaboration, trust and advanced media, teaching/learning competencies required.

 

Colleges and University would benefit from thinking through their curricular offerings through the lens offered in this article and also challenge themselves to discover, design and create valid assessment methods that really measure these skills. 

 

Exciting challenges for us in Higher Education.

Paula King, Ph.D.'s insight:

The MOOC dialogue continues.  In Britain, a new platform was founded.  Fine-grained distinctions are being made among MOOC types, Coursera launched a revenue stream aimed at employers who pay for information about the top performers in courses and the debate in academe rages on. An interesting time in higher education.

100 Diagrams That Changed the World

100 Diagrams That Changed the World | The Future of Higher Education- Human Beings CAN create the future if we pay attention | Scoop.it

A visual history of human sensemaking, from cave paintings to the world wide web.


Since the dawn of recorded history, we’ve been using visual depictions to map the earth, order the heavens, make sense of time, dissect the human body, organize the natural world, perform music, and even decorate abstract concepts like consciousness and love.

100 Diagrams That Changed the World by investigative journalist and documentarian Scott Christianson chronicles the history of our evolving understanding of the world through humanity’s most groundbreaking sketches, illustrations, and drawings, ranging from cave paintings to The Rosetta Stone to Moses Harris’s color wheel to Tim Berners-Lee’s flowchart for a “mesh” information management system, the original blueprint for the world wide web.

But most noteworthy of all is the way in which these diagrams bespeak an essential part of culture — the awareness that everything builds on what came before, that creativity is combinational, and that the most radical innovations harness the cross-pollination of disciplines.

Dennis T OConnor's curator insight, December 29, 2012 3:20 PM

So often when we understand a concept or the relationship of big ideas, we say "I see!" .  Infographics help us see, and be seeing help us think.  This collection of diagrams have impacted the world we live in.  Take a look, perhaps you'll see...

Patrizia Bertini's curator insight, December 30, 2012 5:59 AM

I see! - goes together with embodied cognition? It seems so... Infographics as a key?

Entrepreneurs are always learning. Whether it’s through reading or watching a mentor work, learning how to do business better is a fundamental part of running a company.

 

So it’s little wonder many courses in the latest trend of free education are aimed squarely at entrepreneurs. While some may still view free, online courses with a sense of derision, the truth is these resources are quality sources of knowledge.

Guia para o uso de blogs na Educação.

Joaquin J. Martínez's curator insight, May 4, 8:08 AM

Una guía e itinerario para usar el blog en el aula como medio de expresión en textos multimodales con todas las inteligencias; reflexión, compromiso ciudadano, impacto social. 

Desde mi experiencia, lo que vale de veras es que el blog sea colaborativo y  que se consiga el objetivo estrella: que los aprendices sean los protagonistas. El blog sirve para darle la vuelta a la clase y articular los nuevos roles del aprendizaje: docentes, procuradores de contenidos, (re)creadores.
