From the COVID-19 pandemic and budgetary pressures to generative artificial intelligence (AI) and climate catastrophe, the future of higher education seems murky and fragmented — even gloomy.

Key Points: 
  • From the COVID-19 pandemic and budgetary pressures to generative artificial intelligence (AI) and climate catastrophe, the future of higher education seems murky and fragmented — even gloomy.
  • In this context, one outcome of the pandemic has been a rise in discourses about specific, quite narrowly imagined futures of higher education.
  • Technology companies, consultants and investors, for example, push visions of the future of education as being saved by new technologies.
  • In many cases, their speculation about the future of education, especially where education technology is concerned, often looks bleak.

It’s about more than technology

    • But as Jen Ross, senior lecturer in digital education observes, technology doesn’t solve all our problems.
    • When we think about education futures, technology alone does not automatically help us create better education or healthier societies.
    • Policymakers and educators should consider technology as one part of a toolkit of responses for making informed decisions about what technologies align with more equitable and just education futures.

Emphasizing connection and diversity

    • In line with thinking about more than technology, the second theme is a reminder that the future of education is about healthy social connection and social justice.
    • Researchers emphasize fostering diversity and celebrating diverse expressions of strengths and needs.

Acknowledge the goodness of the present

    • As two podcast guests, Eamon Costello, professor at Dublin City University and collaborator Lily (Prajakta) Girme, noted, we need to acknowledge the good work of educators and learners in the small wins that happen every day.
    • At the time of writing, George Veletsianos receives funding from the Canada Research Chairs program, SSHRC, and BCCAT.

The research, which combines multi-temporal satellite data with bathymetric measurements, offers valuable insights into the growing issue of subaqueous mass loss in the Himalaya.

Key Points: 
  • The research, which combines multi-temporal satellite data with bathymetric measurements, offers valuable insights into the growing issue of subaqueous mass loss in the Himalaya.
  • This oversight was largely due to the limitations of satellite imaging in detecting underwater changes, which has led to a knowledge gap in our understanding of the full extent of glacier loss.
  • "By accounting for the mass loss from lake-terminating glaciers, we can more accurately assess the specific annual mass balance of these glaciers compared to land-terminating ones, which further highlights the accelerated glacier mass loss across the greater Himalaya."
  • Title of the original paper: Underestimated mass loss from lake-terminating glaciers in the greater Himalaya
