Rethinking The Way We Learn with Prof. Martin Spraggon | Episode 3 | Season 2 | Unboxed with AJ
In this episode of Unboxed, we're joined by Professor Martin Spraggon, a strategic innovator with 25+ years of global experience. As a former Dean at Hamdan Bin Mohammed Smart University, he brings unparalleled expertise in sustainability, AI, and education. We spoke about how the current education system is outdated and lagging behind in preparing students for the future. We also discussed the fear of change and a disconnect between academia and industry are major obstacles to reform.
Here are some Key Insights from the episode:
💡 The current education system is failing to meet the needs of both employers and students, resulting in a significant disconnect between academia and industry.
💡 Fear of change is a major obstacle to educational reform, preventing the necessary adaptations to keep up with the rapidly evolving world.
💡 The metaverse has taken a backseat to artificial intelligence, but it will regain importance when combined with AI technologies, creating new possibilities for immersive experiences.
💡 AI has the potential to replicate human thinking and consciousness, allowing avatars to deliver workshops and classes based on an individual’s mindset and perspective.
💡 However, AI still has limitations in understanding the complexities of human dynamics and context, making it crucial to recognize the unique abilities of both AI and humans.
💡 The future of education should focus on developing critical skills for life, rather than solely pursuing degrees, to enable sustainable human growth.
💡 Reimagining education requires a shift in mindset and a willingness to embrace change, not only from educators and policymakers but also from students, parents, and other stakeholders.
