Designing the Future of Effective Teaching and Significant Lifelong Learning

Abstract

With the pandemic, and now AI, the future of teaching and learning in higher education is changing at a record pace. Participants will reflect on the traditional learning model of universities as they view how the future model will transform teaching and learning. The challenge is to attract and retain students who are prospering from the Amazon Effect where learning is individualized and immediate. Just-in-time content delivery will challenge institutions to keep up. Competition in the education market provides more portals for learning than ever before. The focus of the presentation is to provide a practical analysis of the decisions institutions need to implement immediately. Specific ideas for individualizing and strategies to provide immediate delivery of lifelong learning will be presented. Future learning will be student-centered, and student-managed to meet the institutional framework. Participants will share their institution’s response to these challenges as we identify best practices and barriers to implementation and recognize the urgency of necessary campus conversations. Deeper dive resources will be offered for participants’ just-in-time future learning.
