Argument around Futurelearn

In another blog I have made a case for Futurelearn, claiming it has some value in business terms. Not much mentioned in current reporting on OU cuts. I will talk some about thios at the beginning of the event on June 9th. Mention of "digital transformation" relates to situation of radio.

Yes it may all sound like management speak but it will become clear. Radio requires fairly quick statements, rambling blog is just preparation.

Over the next few weeks there should be more info available. Class Central, source of the talk at South by Southwest mentioned in previous posts, has an update on Udacity. They have new courses on AI etc. There is scope for more support for Futurelearn in the UK.

Class Central talk about "business and tech" as the sort of areas where course certificates are in demand. How to relate to "Mode 2" , the term that academics use for some knowledge outside the established disciplines. Suggestions welcome.
