2021 WISE Summit: Reclaiming Our Future through Education

Digital technology has transformed the learning experience. Millions of learners use a rich array of tools and multimedia resources and connect with others in ways that weren’t possible, certainly not at scale, just a few years ago. Education needs to prepare those students for a new world of work where robots and artificial intelligence (AI) can undertake repetitive, dangerous and boring tasks. It is ideal therefore that learning and reskilling, just like work, can be done from almost any location. The possibilities offered by education technology have never been more exciting but it’s important not to lose sight of the fact that we are using these tools to educate people. Humans don’t all come with the same set of factory defaults. Designing educational experiences to accommodate differences in physical characteristics, neurodiversity, culturally influenced perceptions and personal aspirations is not an easy task. We need to rise to this challenge and deliver effective learning experiences with the aid of tools that are pedagogically and ethically sound.

Join The Forum on Education Abroad for the 2023 Career-Integrated Global Learning Conference (CIGL) with a focus on preparing future professionals for the changing world of work. Internships and career-integrated global learning are among the fastest growing areas of education abroad. These opportunities allow students to access high-impact international experiences with immersive engagement in a host organization and local community. CIGL is designed to bridge applied learning and international education. At the three-day conference, you’ll connect with colleagues in lively discussion related to best practices, emerging research, and future trends that link education and employability!
