Abstract:
The ever-accelerating pace of development and global adoption of technology will increasingly have a profound impact on human lives and livelihoods. Advances in technology and the clear demonstration of their rapid adoption during the global pandemic over the past several years have also presented unique new opportunities and challenges for individuals and academic institutions and for life-long learning. At the same time, how humans embrace and deploy technology in their professional and personal lives, and how human behavior intersects with technology will strongly shape the benefits and unintended deleterious consequences of technology for learning and to society. This presentation will focus on a variety of perspectives and viewpoints on the issues surrounding the intersections of technology with learning and human behavior in the context of the Fourth Industrial Revolution and the global challenges faced by humanity in the 21st century and beyond.
