#92 - What does future tech for education look like?

Welcome to this first episode of the Pearson Future Tech for Education Series on The Edtech Podcast. What's in this episode? Setting the stage for the series, we put "future-forecasting" in perspective through a few useful but simple models. We talk about the history of the future, and mindful skepticism. We also delve into the four foci of edtech technologies, mixed reality, data science (AI), biosynching, and human-machine relations, and how these affect education, teaching and learning.
