Enjoyed sitting on @Northeastern’s #FacingTheAIFuture panel and discussing the future of work & impacts of new technologies. We need forward looking policies to address the economic challenges and opportunities ahead of us.

Deeply concerning. I'm In the middle of Robot-Proof by @PresidentAoun. Inspiring read about the need for #highereducation to get serious about the kind of education we need to be providing to meet the (near-here) future.

@PresidentAoun of @Northeastern clearly articulates the need to place lifelong learning at the heart of #HE in his compelling book 📖 Robot-Proof: Higher Education in the Age of Artificial Intelligence. Watch him discuss key recommendations here: bit.ly/2YO1hkn #AI
“We have an education system predicated on a number of people going to university aged 18 to 21, possibly doing a master’s, then getting a job and staying in it. Life is not like that any more, and we need an education system that recognises that.” bit.ly/2YKnJqo
If our goal is to train people of the next generation to apply their inherent human strengths to work in the digital economy, universities will have to update their own skill sets” - Joseph Aoun lnkd.in/eQb4YA4

@PresidentAoun Experiential education is key to robot proofing learners. #HigherEd needs to engage with employers to design curricula that create #pathways to careers #scup2019 – at Seattle, WA
“#HigherEducation is about a social revolution...an opportunity for people to reinvent themselves.” ~ @PresidentAoun at #SCUP2019 @DIALOG – at Seattle, WA

Yes! @PresidentAoun! I totally agree about the opportunities for exp learning. There is not a discipline I could think of that exp learning isn’t essential for. It just requires a little more imagination on the part of educators. #scup2019

If we do not have a mechanism to help people reinvent themselves (lifelong learning) we will see inequality increase. This is where #highereducation comes in. ~ @PresidentAoun at #SCUP2019 – at Seattle, WA
