Reflections on the 60 Year Curriculum with Rovy Branon

Even before COVID-19, higher education was at the beginning of significant change. According to educators like Rovy Branon, there is a need for a “60 Year Curriculum.” During this session of Silver Lining for Learning, Dr. Branon will describe how the University of Washington’s Continuum College is approaching this future through five key change areas: (1) programmatic (the “meta-curriculum”), (2) digital credentials, (3) the new academic stack (technology), (4) learner services, and (5) policy/funding. A key focus of the hour will be the future of online earning in higher education and how the field of educational technology must evolve to serve students for lifelong learning. He will discuss some of the emergent ideas that the University of Washington Continuum College is currently developing and contemplating,  including extensive use of CRM systems, blockchain, mobile technology, and digital credentialing systems.
