“Personalized Learning: Lessons Taken from Healthcare."

Abstract

Both education and healthcare are going through rapid changes in their delivery.   Adapting the concepts from the TED talk, âHealth care should be a team sportâ, by Eric Dishman, this presentation focuses on his bold and creative ideas in reinventing healthcare and applies them to education.  Adapting Dishmanâs concepts would lead to a world of âlearning anywhere; learning networking; and learning customizationâ, with a focused role of the responsible student at the center.   The learning technologies of today can make this a reality. 

Participants can use these concepts and will be shown practical steps to integrate these strategies in to their own courses, and/or reflect upon and shape their own teaching philosophy.
