Teaser – The Project Ungoverned? Podcast

Take a sneak peek at our new podcast series. The Project Ungoverned? Podcast looks at the the brave new world of online learning. We talk to educators, learners, visionaries, and pioneers in online education from across the globe to look at the possibilities, challenges, and governance of online learning. As traditional boundaries in education such as classroom walls, time-based lessons, and age-based instruction disappear rapidly, education is becoming more accessible, affordable, and transparent. Tune into this six-episode podcast series as we look at challenges and opportunities for online education, and explore with our guests key issues and questions such as: * What implications does online education have on teaching and learning? * Will online learning improve or compromise educational quality? * How do we address the changing roles of the teacher and the student as a consumer? * What will become possible in education with new technologies such as artificial intelligence and blockchain? * How are people concerned with the governance of online education? * What are the rules of engagement, and is online learning largely ungoverned?  If you’re an online educator or student, an organization delivering online learning programs, a company creating enabling technologies, or just someone interested in good governance, this podcast is for you.
