Above the slides of a talk I gave today. The topic was ‘future trends on education‘, rather than technologies the idea was to focus on other time-tested dimensions which are relevant for the education. The plan was also to adress some of the drawbacks and pitfalls identified on MOOCs and other recent trends in online education.
Ironically, this talk was given in the first MOOC (Massive Open Online Course) organized by the the University of València (more information in Spanish). So, I have to say the experience was 2x more interesting.
The slides were made with Goodnotes (app). The title was borrowed from an article published by Harry E. Pence.
