  1. Next Generation Learning S Sadagopan IIIT-B Academic Summit, Delhi April 4, 2005

  2. Agenda • Next generation Learning from • Student Perspective • Teacher Perspective • Student – Teacher Interaction Perspective • Societal Issues

  3. Next Generation Learning • Student Perspective • Any time, any where (e-Learning) • Multiple form factor, time factor (electronic classrooms) • Life-long learning (once in life to many times in life) • Inter-departmental, Inter-institutional, Inter-country, Inter-continental • Ubiquitous computing as the base line • Punch-line: All life, engaging, interactive, unlimited • Caveat: Learning is a serious business; Google can be God but no Teacher! Obesity is as much a disease as malnutrition

  4. Next Generation Learning • Teacher Perspective • Delivery challenge will become a thing of the past • Role moves from “pouring” to “guide” • Experiential, interactive, multimedia, multiple elements, class Vs Library integration, Lab Vs Class integration, Class Vs Real world integration will become POSSIBLE (thru tools) for MOST teachers • Individualized “guidance” will become far more practical • Scale will NOT be a “technical” issue, but a “mindset” issue • Punch-line: Administrators, geography, technology may NOT limit you, but imagination will • Caveat: Teaching is No entertainment, but a serious business

  5. Next Generation Learning • Student - Teacher Perspective • Class, Library, reference, Lab will seamlessly coalesce (Blackboard, Google, Wikipaedia, Encyclopedia, i-Campus) • Dramatic improvement in access, including those that are challenged • Punch-line: Departments, Institutions, Universities will undergo a major organizational change • Caveat: Class rooms will not disappear, admissions cannot be “walk through”, education is no “bazaar” but the scale will remove “artificial” access constraints

  6. Societal Issues • Education access will become easier • Lifelong education poses another set of challenges (for the masses) • Technology will NOT be a limiting factor; but the interaction will demand a far more “relaxed”, compelling content • Are we (teachers) ready? Are they (students) ready?

  7. Agenda for India • 100% Literacy • Teaching – one of the Top 3 choice for youngsters • Learning with a smile • Nobel Prize within a century after C V Raman

  8. Summary • Thanks to many tools “technology” challenges will be nearly overcome • Students, Teachers and their interaction will undergo a “paradigm” change • Information access will NOT be a problem, but learning will continue to be a challenge • Any questions?
