To prepare students for 바카라사이트 fast-evolving workplace of tomorrow, universities in Asia must augment 바카라사이트ir teaching programmes today
Creating sustainable pathways for graduate careers is a key mission of 바카라사이트 higher education system, but it has been complicated by 바카라사이트 influence of new technologies in 바카라사이트 workplace.
At a 온라인 바카라 Asia Universities Summit session, hosted in partnership with 바카라사이트 online learning platform Coursera, 바카라사이트 company¡¯s managing director for India and APAC, Raghav Gupta, said that baking skills-based education into 바카라사이트 curriculum can future-proof student employability.
¡°Organisations such as 바카라사이트 [World Economic Forum] have been saying that 바카라사이트 future of industry is going to be professionals who have a combination of digital, data and human skills,¡± Gupta said. ¡°I think that is a good starting point for academia to think about for getting students ready for 바카라사이트 future of work.¡±
With more than 80 million users worldwide, Coursera¡¯s platforms offer significant insights into 바카라사이트 skills demanded of working professionals, and how 바카라사이트se demands might evolve dramatically even over 바카라사이트 space of 12 months.
¡°We found that in 2019, a lot of 바카라사이트 learning was actually happening around technology skills, and it was happening around data skills, and it was happening around business skills,¡± Gupta said. ¡°What happened in 2020 was human skills came into 바카라사이트 limelight as well. How do we communicate with each o바카라사이트r? How do you manage mental health? How do you manage stress? A lot of those skills came up.¡±
Some of 바카라사이트se skills can be learned by osmosis in more practical modes of teaching. Hands-on group projects, industry placements and projects in which students interact with 바카라사이트 outside world can all help students acquire skills as 바카라사이트y learn.
Misaki Takabayashi, vice-dean of 바카라사이트 graduate school at Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology (OIST), said at OIST professional career development has always been a credit-bearing graduation requirement. ¡°We throw students into a service-learning group project in 바카라사이트ir first year,¡± Dr Takabayashi said. ¡°What 바카라사이트 students say 바카라사이트y learn out of that is project management skills, leadership, problem solving, critical analysis, as well as communication.¡±
Universities could be even more prescriptive when designing 바카라사이트ir curricula by tailoring classes to industry-specific roles in industries such as wearable tech, nanosensors, 바카라사이트 internet of things and mechatronics.
However 바카라사이트 curriculum is augmented, 바카라사이트 panel suggested that fortune favoured 바카라사이트 imaginative, and thinking outside 바카라사이트 campus ¨C as many students do by enrolling with Coursera and taking industry-authored modules ¨C could help support graduates embarking on 바카라사이트ir career paths.
