What should our Children learn at school?




Education in the 20’sis not what students will learn, but how they will learn it: 


The advantages of AI and VR to the lifelong learner and educator 


Artificial intelligence in education is and will continue to be an indispensable  tool to support both teachers and students. Robits and artificial intelligence should be embraced as it can improve the human side of the school experience.


Tracking students’ behaviour, data and engagement with the learning material through AI will enable students to customise their experience so they can learn in a way that is optimal to their personal style, and also raise red flags for educators to notice and offer help to students who seem to be developing not optimal behaviour.


Educators workloads will be greatly reduced as technology takes care of collecting data, highlighting learning and behavioural patterns, planning and grading.


Teachers will focus on valuable class time while which will improve their quality of life and reduce the  feeling of overwhelm to the point of wanting to quit.


Learning through video, and gamification will make learning more immersive through virtual, augmented and mixed reality


Students with learning disabilities and other difficulties will also benefit greatly from instructional videos, text-to-speech technology and a wealth of other aids available as compensating tools that give them a fairer chance at learning at the same pace as their peers.


The key is - what does the content need to change to - what is the new curriculum  


What do our children need to have in their armoury to face the doubting world of the future of work? 


I for one am super positive of the future of learning and the opportunities that will stem from the various technologies that are available. 


Onwards and upwards I say!
