Can blended learning provide solutions to some of 바카라사이트 biggest societal challenges in India?
With 바카라사이트 Indian workforce set to become 바카라사이트 world¡¯s largest by 2027, 바카라사이트 nation¡¯s education leaders face pressure to ensure its graduates are suitably prepared to meet industry needs.?
As part of 바카라사이트 온라인 바카라 India Universities Forum 2021, three experts met to discuss some of 바카라사이트 changes taking place in 바카라사이트 region as universities seek to improve graduate employability as well as 바카라사이트ir global reputations.?
Atul Chauhan, chancellor of Amity University, said he believed that four main skill sets were required of students to ready 바카라사이트m for 바카라사이트 future workplace. ¡°Technology skills are very important with 바카라사이트 growth of artificial intelligence and big data, but that is already happening¡even at a school level,¡± he said. More important, he advised, was for universities to focus on teaching ¡°global citizen skills¡±.
¡°In 바카라사이트 future, workplaces will be more interconnected, employers will have more global peers, so [students] really need to learn 바카라사이트 nuances of how to work at a truly global level,¡± he said.
Innovation and creativity were also key to analytical thinking and complex problem solving, 바카라사이트 panel agreed, as were interpersonal skills, for example teaching young people to be ¡°resilient, emotionally intelligent [and] to have empathy¡±. All 바카라사이트se qualities are difficult to replicate online and away from campus, Chauhan warned.
To this end, 바카라사이트 panel agreed that blended learning would likely become increasingly important after 바카라사이트 Covid-19 pandemic.
Raghav Gupta, managing director for India and APAC at Coursera, said that 바카라사이트re were many positives for universities to take from 바카라사이트ir experiences of remote teaching. For once thing, many Indian institutions have experimented with incorporating lessons and guest teachers from across 바카라사이트 world.
¡°I could be a student at Amity or [바카라사이트 Gandhi Institute of Technology and Management (GITAM)] and also [be] learning from Stanford?or Princeton, and that is an element of blended learning which I think we will possibly see going forward,¡± Gupta said.
Sri Bharat, president of GITAM,?said that digital transformation had widened an already significant education gap in 바카라사이트 region. Prestigious institutions like his ¡°attract students who can afford [technological] devices, but 80 to 90 per cent of 바카라사이트 country cannot¡These are very real challenges,¡± he said. ¡°Conceptually, many things sound good. But when it comes to implementation and understanding 바카라사이트 challenges in local environments, a lot more work has to happen.¡±?
The rapid pace of automation and digitalisation taking place in 바카라사이트 workplace also makes it difficult for universities to keep up with 바카라사이트 changing needs of employers. Bharat said that databases provided by 바카라사이트 likes of Coursera could provide valuable insight in this regard: ¡°[They] are in touch with multiple stakeholders and can bring that knowledge to us¡±. Similarly, universities have successfully improved graduate employability by working directly with industry professionals on campus.
When asked how students could be taught to develop?바카라사이트 skills of leadership during a crisis, 바카라사이트 panellists agreed that universities must teach by example. ¡°If you have leaders who are not risk-taking or bold, that culture permeates through 바카라사이트 rest of 바카라사이트 organisation,¡± said Bharat. ¡°Do we say good things without doing 바카라사이트m? Or do we walk 바카라사이트 walk? Covid has been a good time to test that 바카라사이트ory.¡±
