Description

As the hype around MOOCs settles down, but with a sense of potential disruption still in our minds, what sort of higher education future do we seek? We have a very wide, and expanding, range of digital tools at our disposal, some useful experiments under our belts, and technology is mainstreaming itself into students’ learning, perhaps provided more now by them than by us. I shall briefly review some lessons learned over the past few years and then explore options for a university roadmap for the next 10 years, hopefully remaining realistic whilst still optimistic about a richer, technology-supported HE in the future.
