On Balance with Keith Oelrich

Dr. Rod Berger speaks with Keith Oelrich, CEO of learning.com, a K-12 digital skills education platform, yet one looking to expand to 'skills for life'. Digital skills are a critical component of any student's learning journey, now more than ever. As we move to digital content and digital instructional we're presented with the opportunity to test and assess program efficacy, something not possible in our recent textbook days. In a time where millions of jobs are set to be lost to the digital revolution, digital adoption in education couldn't come any sooner. As a nation we lack digital problem solving, a potential security issue when considering the pace of proficiency in China and beyond, yet the outlook from 2022 onwards is bright. Keith and Dr. Berger analyse the current digital education landscape and learning.com's position within this ever growing world, and what it means for ever more large scale players entering the market.
