From DSC:
\nThis is what I have been trying to get folks geared up for, at least where I work. For now, we must cultivate a culture of being able to change — to be adaptable and flexible — <\/em>because if we want to continue to optimize our educational efforts, we need to be able to address a different kind of student.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Some excerpts from this posting include:<\/p>\n

\u201cHer point: \u2018If I\u2019m a college CIO (chief information officer) or CTO (chief technology officer), and I\u2019m only thinking about the 100 percent online class that my students are looking for, then I\u2019m not properly preparing for that next generation of students coming up, who want a blended approach.

\n– They\u2019re untethered from traditional education.
\n– They\u2019re expert at personal data aggregation.
\n– They engage in the power of connections.
\n– They create new communities.

\n– They prefer experiential learning.
\n– They\u2019re content developers.
\n– The process is as important as \u2013 and sometimes more important than \u2013 the knowledge gained.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
