Trends of E-learning for 2017
Going forward in to 2017 I have no doubt that the items listed in the infographic above feature in the pedagogic, deterministic, budgetary and strategic discussions variously held throughout UK Higher Education. I just wonder how quickly they will permeate down to the experiences of academics and students in the classrooms, and which institutions will be among the first to make the most capital out of each one.

Starbird sighed. “I used to be a techno-utopian. Now I can’t believe that I’m sitting here talking to you about all this.”
The depressing reality that people are people no matter what tools they use to express their humanity.

This April Fools from NVidia was very well done. It would be no surprise to hear that it pulled some people in. The thought that machines can play your game for (or against) you is nothing new. “Bots” have been in existence for years that would do just that, either as opponents in your game or even autoscripts to take on the more mundane tasks in video games or just play for you entirely. But this video suggests something very much more appealing. “Deep learning algorithms” which will even “talk or emote” on your behalf! It’s like you never left your seat… I wonder if NVIDIA will ever release the numbers of sign-ups they captured on that page…

@HerrSchwindenh_ @TEDTalks If all lectures worldwide had the resources, production values, marketing, PR, brand recognition, perhaps attendance would be better #mscedc

@HerrSchwindenh_ @TEDTalks True, but TED talks have all those things. #mscedc

@HerrSchwindenh_ @TEDTalks Isn't that what TEDx is for ?! 😀

@HerrSchwindenh_ @Eli_App_D @TEDTalks In order for lectures to evolve the people +institution lecturing will have to change their practice systematically, holistically. #mscedc

@c4miller @Eli_App_D @TEDTalks Which is a problem that can be solved. I'm up for it. Are you?

@HerrSchwindenh_ Now that it's closer to being sanitized and cowed, perhaps its new name will suggest "business" as usual? #mscedc
