Mark Brown

Professor Mark Brown gave a presentation on the digital learning revolution and its impacts on higher education. He outlined several debates on issues like whether universities have failed to adapt to societal changes and if lectures are obsolete. He also discussed dilemmas like managing increased workload and infrastructure challenges from digital learning. Brown proposed a framework to design blended learning environments and concluded by calling for courage to teach in new ways, designing better learning experiences, and recognizing fiction versus fantasy in digital education.
