Excerpt (emphasis DSC):<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

We\u2019re thrilled to announce that<\/span> Coursera content will now be available on<\/span> Apple TV<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Since our beginning, one of our primary goals has been to make learning more accessible for everyone. Our mobile platform brought an on-demand learning experience to people\u2019s busy, on-the-go lifestyles, and now, we\u2019re extending availability to your home. Regardless of where in the world you are located, you\u2019ll now be able to learn from top university professors and renowned experts without the expense of travel or tuition.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

TV availability isn\u2019t only a first for Coursera\u2014it marks Apple TV\u2019s first ever introduction of online learning to its platform. Everything you can do online at Coursera, you\u2019ll now be able to do from the comfort of your own living room:<\/strong> <\/span>browse our entire catalogue of courses, peruse new topics, and watch videos from some of the top academic and industry experts.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

From DSC:<\/span><\/em>
\n Coursera takes us one step closed to a very powerful learning platform — one that in the future will provide a great deal of intelligence behind the scenes.\u00a0 It’s likely that we will be using personalized, adaptable, digital learning playlists while enjoying some serious levels of interactivity…while also making use of web-based learner profiles (the data from which will either be hosted at places like LinkedIn.com or will be fed into employers’ and universities’ competency-based databases).\u00a0 The application development for tvOS should pick up greatly, especially if the collaboration capabilities are there.<\/span><\/p>\n

For example, can you imagine marrying the functionalities that Bluescape<\/a> provides with the reach, flexibility, convenience, and affordances that are unfolding with the new Apple TV?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Truly, some mind-blowing possibilities are developing.\u00a0 In the not too distant future, lifelong learning won’t ever be the same again (not to mention project-related work).
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

This is why I’m big on the development and use of
\nteam of specialists<\/a><\/em> — as an organization may have
\na harder time competing in the future without one.
