Episode 2: Skills for the future

The Internationalist

The online pivot presents the higher education sector with a new set of opportunities and challenges. How can universities ensure their courses are fit for purpose? What skills do teachers and students need to use technology effectively and how do they keep up with technological change? Technology can help deliver lessons in new ways, but it creates issues too.

In the previous episode, we heard about some of the big issues that impact on the use of digital technology in higher education. In this episode, we’ll focus on one of them - what skills will staff and students need for the future and how can universities best prepare their teachers and their learners?

Natasha's guests are Dr Shikha Raturi, Lecturer in the School of Education at the University of the South Pacific in Fiji and Professor Sue Bennett, Head of the School of Education at the University of Wollongong, in New South Wales, Australia. We also hear from Dr Tammy Tabe, a lecturer at the University of the South Pacific.
