Why educators must transform to meet the needs of tomorrow’s workforce
Preview:
In an era where the pace of technological change is moving faster than most of us can fully process, fundamental changes are needed in higher education. And yet many Americans feel educators are not meeting the moment.
A recent Gallup survey found that only 11 percent of business leaders strongly agree that college graduates are well-prepared for the workforce, while fewer than half of recent graduates themselves feel confident in their readiness. Public confidence in the value of a college degree is continuing to trend downward, with just 36 percent of adults now saying a four-year degree is worth the cost.
