Jack Ma: the way we teach is going to make our kids lose jobs | #ModernEDU MUST #CHANGE | #FlippedMind

Jack Ma: the way we teach is going to make our kids lose jobs | #ModernEDU MUST #CHANGE | #FlippedMind | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

Jack Ma is optimistic about jobs in the age of AI and automation — but only if we start educating our children differently. Computers will always be better at calculating than we will, so we need to focus on service and creativity to be prepared.


“MADE IN INTERNET”

Jack Ma, founder and chairman of Alibaba, isn’t afraid of artificial intelligence (AI) or automation. Instead, he thinks we need to prepare in the right ways for the massive, disruptive changes these forces are precipitating.

“In the last 200 years, manufacturing [brought] jobs. But today, because of the artificial intelligence, because of the robots, manufacturing is no longer the main engine of creating jobs,” Ma said Wednesday at the Bloomberg Global Business Forum. “The service industry is going to be the main driver for job creation.”

 

ADAPTATION WILL CREATE JOBS

Ma’s not alone in this thinking; many experts feel that the way we currently teach children is ineffective, outdated,won’t prepare them for automation or STEM jobs, and renders higher learning inaccessible to too many. But when it comes to AI, Ma joins a debate that’s much more polarizing, with experts taking positions across the spectrum of opinion.

How Blockchain is the Key to a Secure IoT | #CyberSecurity #InternetOfThings 

How Blockchain is the Key to a Secure IoT | #CyberSecurity #InternetOfThings  | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
The solution for Smeets and his team though is not to pile on extra layers of authentication, but rather to distribute them. And that's where blockchain comes it. Because the blockchain functions via a distributed and encrypted ledger shared across all of a network's users and devices, it creates a network of authentication that is verifiable and not easily hacked.

 

With blockchain implemented, a device cannot access a network unless it is verified through the entire ledger. In this scenario attacks like Mirai become significantly more difficult, if not impossible, because a hacker would need to modify the entire ledger, and not just the credentials of any one device.

Ericcson Research demonstrated a proof-of-concept of this idea at the 2017 Mobile World Congress in Barcelona this past March. The researchers set up a small WiFi network that used blockchain authentication instead of a typical username/password setup.

Computers and the Future of Skill Demand | #OECD #Books #DigitalSkills #ICT #Research

Computers and the Future of Skill Demand | #OECD #Books #DigitalSkills #ICT #Research | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
Computer scientists are working on reproducing all human skills using artificial intelligence, machine learning and robotics. Unsurprisingly then, many people worry that these advances will dramatically change work skills in the years ahead and perhaps leave many workers unemployable.

This report develops a new approach to understanding these computer capabilities by using a test based on the OECD’s Survey of Adult Skills (PIAAC) to compare computers with human workers. The test assesses three skills that are widely used at work and are an important focus of education: literacy, numeracy and problem solving with computers.

Most workers in OECD countries use the three skills every day. However, computers are close to reproducing these skills at the proficiency level of most adults in the workforce. Only 13% of workers now use these skills on a daily basis with a proficiency that is clearly higher than computers.

The findings raise troubling questions about whether most workers will be able to acquire the skills they need as these new computer capabilities are increasingly used over the next few decades. To answer those questions, the report’s approach could be extended across the full range of work skills. We need to know how computers and people compare across all skills to develop successful policies for work and education for the future.

Die Digitalisierung beginnt im Kopf | #FlippedMind #ICT  | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

Die internationale Konkurrenz ist so groß, dass selbst gefestigte Unternehmen bedroht sind. Doch die Digitalisierung bietet die Chance zu Wettbewerbs-entscheidenden Transformationen.

Zwar arbeiten viele Unternehmen mit Hochdruck an Strategien zur Digitalisierung, allzu oft sind die Ansätze aber zu technisch und betreffen lediglich das Ist-Geschäft. Dadurch treten die wettbewerbsentscheidende Umwandlung der Firmenkultur sowie der Aufbau entscheidender Fähigkeiten in den Hintergrund. Das ist fatal, denn gerade dort wird die Basis für einen langfristigen Erfolg gelegt.


Digitalisierung ist nicht die Aufgabe weniger Experten, sondern aller Fachbereiche und erfordert neue Formen der Zusammenarbeit und der Führungskultur.


Alle Industrien, alle Branchen


Die Digitalisierung ist in vielen Branchen schon gelebte Realität, wenn auch unterschiedlich bedrohend in der Wahrnehmung. Gerade Fertigungsunternehmen klassischer Produkte fühlen sich noch wenig bedroht, auch wenn Trends wie 3D-Druck, Mehrwerte durch Produktvernetzung (Internet of Things) oder vernetzte Fertigungskonzepte bereits spürbar sind. Oft werden diese Trends als Bereicherung gesehen und nicht als Bedrohung. Doch die Gefahr besteht: Neben den digitalen Lösungen und Geschäftsmodellen neuer, aggressiver Wett­bewerber ist der Verlust der Kundenschnittstelle die akuteste.

Why Digital Transformation Won't Succeed Without Cultural Change | #ICT #Infographic #Digitalisierung | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
A lot of businesses frequently use the term Digital Transformation, but what does it actually mean?

We have become so accustomed to digital technology, we are no longer able to imagine life without it. And yet, when it comes to the digital transformation of the work environment, we still have a long way to go. The greatest obstacle for digital transformation is simply, people.

Make digital transformation a capability, not a project; transform operations not just customer experience #hbrwebinar @gwesterman

— Parag Gogate (@paraggogate) 18 août 2017

There are a number of things that don’t have to do with technical innovations that are going to make the process more complicated. That’s not to say that creating the proper infrastructure to accommodate the rapid pace of development is not going to be a major issue in and of itself. But a number of key factors in implementing digital solutions are related to people. And while is relatively easy to change and adapt to new technology, people are not.

Many global companies start to realize their business will be mostly digital within the coming years, but not many are really interested in dealing with the digital transformation.

What does a community manager do and what skills do they need? | #DigitalSkills #SocialMedia #ICT #Jobs

What does a community manager do and what skills do they need? | #DigitalSkills #SocialMedia #ICT #Jobs | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
If you work in social media, explaining your job can be a frustrating experience - especially to family members who probably assume that you just use Facebook all day. 

For Community Managers, in particular, there tends to be a lot of confusion over exactly what the role entails.

To clear things up, I thought I’d delve into the world of community management and find out why it’s becoming increasingly important for brands of all kinds.

Here’s a beginner’s guide.

What does a community manager do?

The role of a community manager is to act as the bridge between a brand and the community it is aiming to create (i.e. a loyal audience or group of core consumers connected by a similar interest). 

They should be the brand’s ambassador, engaging with potential customers and building relationships with existing ones. They are also focused on gauging sentiment around the brand, using social listening tools in order to monitor feedback and engagement.

Geldanlage über Internet-Plattformen: Hohe Rendite, mehr Risiko?
Geldanlagen über Internet-Plattformen stoßen auf wachsendes Interesse, aber auch auf Skepsis. „Die Renditen sind beim Crowdinvesting meist deutlich höher als beispielsweise auf dem Tagesgeldkonto, aber das Risiko ist auch größer“, sagte Wolf Brandes, Finanzmarktwächter bei der Verbraucherzentrale Hessen, der Deutschen Presse-Agentur.

 

Nach Beobachtung der Verbraucherschützer werden Zinsen von durchschnittlich 4,5 Prozent geboten, in der Spitze sind es zehn Prozent.


„Anleger sollten die Risiken und Chancen und insbesondere die Ausgestaltung der Verträge genau prüfen“, mahnte Brandes. „Das Risiko reicht bis zum Totalverlust des Geldes im Falle einer Insolvenz.“ Internetplattformen sammeln dabei Geld zum Beispiel zur Finanzierung vor allem von Startups. Ist die Firma erfolgreich, erhalten Anleger Zinsen oder eine Gewinnbeteiligung. Häufig handelt es sich den Angaben zufolge um Nachrangdarlehen - im Falle einer Insolvenz bekommen die Investoren ihr Geld also erst, wenn alle anderen Gläubiger ausbezahlt wurden - oder erfolgsabhängige Darlehen.

Geldanlage über Internet-Plattformen: Hohe Rendite, mehr Risiko?
Geldanlagen über Internet-Plattformen stoßen auf wachsendes Interesse, aber auch auf Skepsis. „Die Renditen sind beim Crowdinvesting meist deutlich höher als beispielsweise auf dem Tagesgeldkonto, aber das Risiko ist auch größer“, sagte Wolf Brandes, Finanzmarktwächter bei der Verbraucherzentrale Hessen, der Deutschen Presse-Agentur.

 

Nach Beobachtung der Verbraucherschützer werden Zinsen von durchschnittlich 4,5 Prozent geboten, in der Spitze sind es zehn Prozent.


„Anleger sollten die Risiken und Chancen und insbesondere die Ausgestaltung der Verträge genau prüfen“, mahnte Brandes. „Das Risiko reicht bis zum Totalverlust des Geldes im Falle einer Insolvenz.“ Internetplattformen sammeln dabei Geld zum Beispiel zur Finanzierung vor allem von Startups. Ist die Firma erfolgreich, erhalten Anleger Zinsen oder eine Gewinnbeteiligung. Häufig handelt es sich den Angaben zufolge um Nachrangdarlehen - im Falle einer Insolvenz bekommen die Investoren ihr Geld also erst, wenn alle anderen Gläubiger ausbezahlt wurden - oder erfolgsabhängige Darlehen.

‘Mind-Boggling’ Math Could Make Blockchain Work for Wall Street | #ICT 

‘Mind-Boggling’ Math Could Make Blockchain Work for Wall Street | #ICT  | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
A major breakthrough in cryptography may have solved one of the biggest obstacles to using blockchain technology on Wall Street: keeping transaction data private.

Known as a “zero-knowledge proof,” the new code will be included in an Oct. 17 upgrade to the ethereum blockchain, adding a level of encryption that lets trades remain private. Previously, users were able to remain anonymous but transactions were verified by allowing everyone on the network to see them.

“Zero-knowledge proofs are one of the biggest inventions in the last two decades in cryptography,” said Emin Gun Sirer, an associate professor of computer science at Cornell University. It “will allow a slew of applications we can’t even imagine right now.”

The dark web: What it is and how it works | #ICT #CyberCrime #CyberSecurity  | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
Off the paths it is almost impossible to find anything – unless you know what you’re looking for – so it feels a bit like a treasure hunt. Because really the only way to find anything in this vast forest is to be told where to look. This is how the dark web works – and it is essentially the name given to all the hidden places on the internet.

Just like the forest, the dark web hides things well – it hides actions and it hides identities. The dark web also prevents people from knowing who you are, what you are doing and where you are doing it. It is not surprising, then, that the dark web is often used for illegal activity and that it is hard to police.

Tallinn Ministerial Declaration on eGovernment | #ICT #EU

Tallinn Ministerial Declaration on eGovernment | #ICT #EU | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
(TALLINN and BRUSSELS – 06 October 2017) European Union and European Free Trade Area (EFTA) member states signed the Tallinn Declaration on eGovernment, a new European commitment on significant priorities towards ensuring high-quality, user-centric digital public services for citizens and seamless cross-border service provision for businesses.

Digital-by-default, inclusiveness and accessibility
Once only “for key public services”
Trustworthiness and security
Openness and transparency

Tinder für Teenager? Was Eltern und Erzieher über „Yellow“ wissen sollten | #DigitalCitiZENship #SocialMedia

Tinder für Teenager? Was Eltern und Erzieher über „Yellow“ wissen sollten | #DigitalCitiZENship #SocialMedia | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

Die App „Yellow“ funktioniert ähnlich wie die beliebte Dating-App „Tinder“ - mit dem kleinen Unterschied, dass sie auch eine Community für Jugendliche anbietet. BEE SECURE erklärt, was Eltern und Erzieher beachten sollten. 

Das Prinzip ist wahrscheinlich jedem bekannt: Mit einem „Swipe“ nach links oder rechts entscheidet man sich für oder gegen das Profil einer Person. Bei gegenseitigem Gefallen bekommt man die Möglichkeit, mit der anderen Person zu kommunizieren. So funktioniert die Dating-App „Tinder“ und hunderte Apps, die das Prinzip nachahmen. Auch „Yellow“ nutzt dieses Prinzip, um unter anderem Jugendliche miteinander zu vernetzen.

 

Ziel der App ist es offiziell, neue Freunde zu finden – natürlich lädt das Prinzip auch dazu ein, zu flirten. Neben dem „swipen“ und chatten ist es möglich, Live-Videos über Yellow zu streamen. Diese können alle Nutzer (und nicht nur die Freunde) sehen.
