Problems With Higher Education & Adult Learning
Future talents must now have multi-disciplinary skills, and be thinkers and makers who can create value rather than just add value. Technology skills are fast becoming core skills essential to perform future jobs.
To develop future-ready talents for the new economy, the world of higher education and adult learning need to be transformed.
There are 3 new problems that needs to be addressed by higher education in the digital economy:
First, frequent reskilling is needed to stay agile. As new technology become industry standards, talents will have to reskill themselves to remain relevant.
Second, classroom-oriented learning limits industry exposure and is time invasive. This does not fit the reality of a fast-paced, digital world where everything is becoming plug-and-play.
Finally, the fragmented education sector, with respective silos for academic & applied pathways, do not provide sufficient flexibility and interoperability for developing thinkers and makers with knowledge and skills.
Some call it “Industry 4.0”; others call it “third wave”. This innovation-led transformation raises the need for skills development, in higher education and lifelong adult learning, both for enterprises and for individuals.
New academia would have to change from developing graduates who are job seekers to one who are job creators with an innovation mindset. For such a result, the pathway of choice to emphasis on is an applied learning pathway.
By combining vocational training with academic learning to provide practical skills and transferable knowledge, these new graduates will be able to bridge the untapped connections between learning and the workplace.
The transformed higher education and adult learning sectors will become strategic and trusted partners to business enterprises and individuals. For individuals, the transformed education providers will now facilitate their career and skills development through skills mastery and lifelong learning. For business enterprises, the transformed education provider will now be the outsourced skills and talents provider to support their business transformation to become a future ready enterprise.
Technology As Enabler for Learning Innovations
MOOCs have democratized education by making it available almost free to the masses globally by leveraging on advanced internet technology. However, studies have shown that when education is entirely self-paced and self-driven, the success rate is low, as demonstrated by the high dropout rates.
The digital revolution offers the perfect technology and environment where learners could be uniquely identified, learning content be specifically presented, and progress can be individually monitored, supported and assessed. We have the technology that permits individuality again.
Therefore, more than just digitizing education for mass delivery using technology, we need to use technology as an enabler to move beyond pure standardization on the one hand and costly customization on the other towards the concept of mass customization to optimize return on adult learning investment. Ultimately, adult learning need to be individualized, localized and globalized to support an individual’s career progression.
