The Future of Education
This is a PAST event. See "Meeting Notes" section for audio, video, documents and other information.
Original event date/time: Friday February 22nd, 2008, 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm The word "Education" has a double meaning. In one sense it means to learn. In the other, it means to get a credential for some career purpose.
Abstract:
The word "Education" has a double meaning. In one sense it means to learn. In the other, it means to get a credential for some career purpose. In the first sense of the word, the internet seems to be opening up vast opportunities for learning, with ever more online books, video lectures, audio downloads, and other educational materials, many of which are cheap or even free. The cost of traditional educational materials, such as books, continues to go down as quality goes up. However, in the second sense of the word "education" the picture is much different, with escalating costs and increasing political conflict.
