Coronavirus: How to cope with the digital skills divide | Education 2.0 & 3.0 | Scoop.it

One of the consequences of the Covid-19 coronavirus pandemic has been an intensifying of the digital divide both between individual companies and among different parts of their workforces, according to a report by the Harvard Business Review.

The article entitled Coronavirus is widening the corporate digital divide points out that the “need to virtualise work due to Covid-19 is driving digital transformation and deepening differences across people and across firms at an incredible rate”.

An African Solution to the Digital Skills Gap: Preparing for the Future of Work in Emerging Markets

An African Solution to the Digital Skills Gap: Preparing for the Future of Work in Emerging Markets | Education 2.0 & 3.0 | Scoop.it

With the rise of artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning and cloud computing, the nature of work is transforming. The workplace is changing, raising fundamental questions about what it means to be a worker, and how to have a fulfilling career. While many focus on the possible downsides of these changes, like whether AI will displace millions of workers, we’d like to reframe the conversation and focus on the skills and workforce necessary for the (present and) future of work.

What Matters More: Skills or Degrees?

What Matters More: Skills or Degrees? | Education 2.0 & 3.0 | Scoop.it

We increasingly hear employers, prospective students and futurists saying that it is all about the skills, not about the degree. What does that mean for higher ed?

July 10, 2019
 

Historically, employers made the baccalaureate, and in some cases advanced degrees, the gateway to an interview. If you did not hold the sheepskin, you would not get in the door. But times have changed. Rapidly advancing technologies such as artificial intelligence, big data analytics, robotics and the advent of quantum computing have created an environment in which much of what is learned in college becomes outdated in a few short years. Certainly, the soft skills of creative thinking, critical thinking, communication and leadership do not go out of date and remain in demand by employers. But the hard facts and skills of most of the disciplines are changing as technology ripples through the economy and society.

Technology has changed not only the how we work, but also has included some new skills in the world. It means that an adult will learn a new world wide movement that could be difficult. Therefore, it will be the responsibility off any facilitator to orientate adults in the processes of acquiring the new skills required by the technological world.

 There are 3 aspects that the authors of this article deals with:

 1) Every day more companies have been being moved by the technology, and many of adults have been outside of this progress by the lack of education.
 2) Nowadays many universities are implemented programs or courses of science and technology for adults. 
3) Several universities have been implemented ways of carrying education for any adult. It means that they rare trying to facilitate the education access and advantage for adults. 

As facilitators, we must guide the adult learner during the process of new technology and new skills to provide them opportunities of being part of the new technological society

Focus On Unlearning And Relearning

Focus On Unlearning And Relearning | Education 2.0 & 3.0 | Scoop.it
When I moved to the USA from the southern hemisphere 20 years, I had to learn to drive on the other side of the street. This required me to “unlearn” what I knew and “relearn” how to drive. There was no choice or reason to delay. If I did not adapt, my safety and the safety of those around me would be at risk! Similarly, workplace employees do not have the luxury of slowly adapting to change. The pace is fast, constant and often overwhelming.

We know that an organization’s ability to adapt to change is critical to business success. Do we also appreciate the impact of individual behavior on successful transformations? For this to happen, individuals need to unlearn what they have previously learned and then relearn new and relevant information. This “learn-unlearn-relearn” cycle may repeat many times over.

Most working adults have no interest in learning.

If you blanche at that sentence, and say, “oh no, but I love learning – what is life if not a journey of discovery?” then a hearty congratulations from me to you: You’re in the miniscule 22% of knowledge workers who genuinely love to learn.

Flexibility as a key benefit of open – The Ed Techie

Flexibility as a key benefit of open – The Ed Techie | Education 2.0 & 3.0 | Scoop.it

I was at a posh event in London last week, hosted by the Open University (I even wore a tie, people!). It was launching an OU report “Bridging the Digital Divide” which looks at some of the skills gaps in employment and how education can address these. It’s a good report, which avoids the trite “60% of jobs haven’t been invented yet” type statement and builds on some solid evidence.

[PDF] The new Learning Economy and the rise of the Working Learner

[PDF] The new Learning Economy and the rise of the Working Learner | Education 2.0 & 3.0 | Scoop.it

Until recently, we thought of learning, working, and living as separate parts of our lives. In our younger years we went to school.  We spent our adult years working, and wove in personal events into the time that remained.  Now imagine a world where all of this has changed. In the not so distant future, working, learning, and living will become increasingly inseparable, not by choice, but in order to thrive in a rapidly evolving learning economy.
