Creating Education 4 for Learning Technologists

# data[].attributes.body
Benefits - financial, accessibility, inclusivity
Overwhelmed, concerned, excited, hopeful.
Would like to see disappearance of VLE
Curriculum change to more competency-based
Teaching supported by robotics

# data[].attributes.headline
YELLOW - Small micro courses - students co-create the curriculum, cross cohort learning (working across years), flexibility, choice, choice of assessment methods BLACK - managing this complicated curriculum, difficult to have national accreditation process, internationally recognised quality assurance, training needs, culture shift, how do you develop a community of practice when there is no cohort as such, teacher needs to keep up to date all the time, assessment needs to be appropriate - competencies RED - Concerns around transactional nature of education, the student experience, the redundancy of university GREEN - flipping things - no technology in the classroom, swapping roles - students take the class, ownership of student IP - more creative assessment, more space in curriculum, remove assessment (!), more time and space for creativity, collaboration across countries/industry

BLUE - To summarise we would like to change the curriculum and change related QA processes, we want to use blockchain to bring about microcredential courses

# data[].attributes.body
We are optimistic and pessimistic
Lecture format needs to change
What’s the education for? We need to decide and then see how it can be achieved.
Harnessing opportunity to put learner at centre
Moving away from shiny things to co-creation and entrepreneurship

# data[].attributes.body
Curriculum design is shaped by our institutions,  schools identities. Students are looking for rankings and reputations. Selling an idea, a perception of an experience. Open structure where everyone e has a voice and rewards creativity. Restructure education.

# data[].attributes.body
Do we finally kill off the VLE? Break down the walls of the walled garden.

Break down the walls of the curriculum, and invite students to shape their courses themselves.

Robots to measure your preparedness for activities?

Liberates us as teachers to do the higher-level activities and more creative thinking.

# data[].attributes.body
Face to face experience not going to disappear.  It will become more valuable.  Universities will have to adapt.

More focused on real world problems.

Survive and thrive, creativity, interaction.

Making easier processes to create AI etc.

What is a learner and creating those skills.

Collecting data alongside of the job - digital capabilities.

# data[].attributes.body
Abolish Quality Assurance agencies. Abolish students union. Cut boundaries.

# data[].attributes.body
Why do we need universities?
Would love to develop people bringing their own way of learning
Focus learning to learning
Traditional lecture will die
Coming to a campus is really important

# data[].attributes.body
I feel... excited.
I feel... optimistic.
I feel...confident.
I feel...cautious.
I feel...uncertain.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel there is great potential.
I feel worried about there being too much information
I feel worried that I have to be on my guard about how I’m being influenced in how I think and what I buy
I feel universities are doing a disservice to students by being old-fashioned
I feel optimistic that we will see a change from job-related to a more entrepreneurial spirit and opportunities to be more learner aspiration orientated.

# data[].attributes.body
Change is not sustainable. Feel confused. I feel pessimistic. Sorry but we also spoke about brexit and impact on students and institutions. Spoke about trade wars and conflicts and how that links with recruitment and HE.

# data[].attributes.body
Who will set the agenda on a global level? Will more traditional learning methods dominate? Some countries are more progressive than others. Will there be true accessibility or will some people be increasingly disadvantaged because of limited access to technology . Change takes time- let’s be realistic. There is still a lot of traditional teaching.

We've got the right people resources.  We just don't utilise them effectively.  Internal politics affect this.

Apathy - don't care attitudes.

Loss of community or sense of.  The human connection.  Doesn't always working talking to a 'robot'.

Technology replacing people.

Different people and demographics, life experiences which have different representations of reality. How will it work?

# data[].attributes.body
Replace human work with AI. What will humans do with the time available? Sense of the lack of human interaction with students. Example of assessments being made by machine  learning. Where is the personalisation? Lack of geographical and cultural consideration in AI.

# data[].attributes.body
Flipped learning - how learners can contribute to it and shape it

Benefits of this is what are they prepare for the future?

Preparingfor the unknown situations and be willing to change.

Criticality and evaluate.  For students to make an informed choice, sharing rather than being some done to them.  Unpredictable futures.

Agent of change.

Everything is possible, if you have the right people and funding it is all achievable.

Act like we are the future. Increases positive mindset and practices.

# data[].attributes.body
Lots of types of learning
Learners will be better able to shape and co-create learning, theory and practice
More space for innovation involving students. This is an exciting time
Learn more working with others
Learning will be more accessible
Change of culture
Micro learning will allow more accessibility and allow more learning from failure

# data[].attributes.body
Co designing the curriculum with students. Self assessment. Degree of choice and flexibility of content and course for students. Blockchain courses. Model that generates multiple pathways for students.
