SXSW EDU 2021

The Future of Distance Education in a New Era

Description:

E-learning technology solutions of today are highly centralized, and serve the interests of the government, the market, the institutions. But what if we placed the learner in the centre and applied human centered design learning solutions? And if we are able to create tech/systems placing a human in the center, and not universities, corporations, etc., how the future of ed will look like?
We will tap into what do learners really want and need, and whether decentralization in ed is possible.
