A Research and Tech Unboxing

Brian Sweeting is a Digital Publishing Manager and Content
Strategist for New Learning Times. He manages a team of writers
whose goal is to create and curate compelling digital content
that deepens an understanding of forward-thinking learning,
teaching, and research.


This episode, Brian and I consider a sort of "unboxing." He
brings us four recent articles covered by New Learning Times.
It's the first I've heard anything about them, and you get to
come along as we unwrap the story - my understanding of the story
- as we go. 


As always, my thanks to Brian and the talented team at New
Learning Times. I hope you'll go check them out.


The New Learning Times (NLT) provides daily coverage of the
transformation of learning opportunities in the information age
for those shaping the future of education. NLT is produced at the
EdLab at Teachers College, Columbia University.


The editorial frame for NLT is governed by our understanding of
three major trends, which we have termed “The New 3R’s.” Far
beyond mere reform, the education sector is undergoing a major
Reformation, a profound reconfiguration of the customs,
institutions, and relationships that together constitute the
foundations for learning opportunities around the world. Spurred
by rapid developments in communications and computation, the
education sector is also experiencing a Renaissance of new ideas,
processes, and possibilities to support learning across the
lifespan. The rapid introduction and convergence of these
emerging political, technical, and artistic forces is creating
the conditions for a Revolution in what is becoming the new
learning sector. The New Learning Times seeks to chronicle the
major transformation in learning possibilities.
