So where is this all going?

The Future of Education – Personalized, Perfect & Free (Thanks to AI and VR)


Right now, online platforms like Khan Academy and Coursera have made a plethora of educational resources available 1) for free and 2) on demand, such that you can pick and choose what you learn and at what speed you learn it.

Khan Academy has delivered over 300 million lessons since it started in 2006, features 5,000 free instructional videos in 65 languages, and allows users to complete 4 million exercises every day – simply amazing.

In 2011, Stanford professor Andrew Ng decided to put his machine learning course online for free, thinking that maybe a few additional people would tune in with his students. Within days, 100,000 people had signed up to take the course.

We are already seeing technology democratize access to education – but soon the education itself will become even more powerful with the help of AI and virtual and augmented reality.

In the near future, artificial intelligence will be able to personalize learning platforms to each individual student.

The AI will have unlimited access to information and will deliver it at the optimal speed to each student in an engaging, fun way.

They talk also about holistic view which I agree as it is also used in IT-Security, Cybersecurity (or should be), but what is holistic? Check: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holistic  for more information...

Holism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Holism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

Holism (from ὅλος holos, a Greek word meaning all, whole, entire, total), is the idea that natural systems (physical, biological, chemical, social, economic, mental, linguistic, etc.) and their properties, should be viewed as wholes, not as collections of parts. This often includes the view that systems somehow function as wholes and that their functioning cannot be fully understood solely in terms of their component parts.[1][2]

 

Gust MEES's insight:

WE must see (realize) that there is more than "YES" and "NO", more than "BLACK" and "WHITE", more than "DAY" and "NIGHT"! There is a LOT between them!

 

I actually go so far to say that there is a need for "Quality Thinking" in the 21st Century! And with the use of the Internet WE should ALSO realize that both are "Interdependent, one is influencing each other, therefore a holistic view is necessary and "Holism" needs to get taught by Education...

 

===> Holism means ALSO to be able to see the "Interdependence" between different Topics! <===

We are slowly returning to a holistic worldview, which the modern world sorely needs to reclaim. Yet holism is an ancient worldview, and holistic thinking a perennial ancient art, documented as far back as ancient Egypt.
