The future of education? Novel incentives, emerging trends &
hybrid practice.</i><br>
<br>
Introduction by Roy Ascott (uk)<br>
<br>
Coordinated by Nina Czegledy (ca/hu)<br>
</div>
<div>In the ISEA2010 Education Workshop the identification and
discussion of specific key educational issues initiates the open
exchange between educational experts and workshop participants. Roy
Ascott's introduction on pioneering platforms for PhD studies forms
the base for the exchange. The contribution by educational experts is
focused on learning methods and accreditation, including PhD studies
and novel incentives leading to hybrid learning and interdisciplinary
practice.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div><font face="Arial" color="#000000">In recent years more and more
academic institutions require lecturers with advanced degrees; yet
obtaining these qualifications remains a problem in several countries
of continental Europe - leading to fierce debates on educational
circumstances. What is our role in this environment and how do we
proceed? Roy Ascott's<i> Planetary Collegium</i> initiative is a
remarkable example of a pioneering international platform for PhD
studies. His introduction to the ISEA2010 Education Workshop forms the
base of the discussion on the complexity of these issues. These
complexities include numerous significant items including packaged
e-learning, various business models and social technologies for higher
education etc., Within the scope of this workshop however the
discussion is focused predominantly on various aspects of PhD studies
and hybrid learning.</font><br>
</div>
<div><font face="Arial" color="#000000">To unpack the monopoly of
higher educational methods by academia, hybrid learning is also
investigated in the ISEA2010 Education Workshop. A palpable tension
exists between academic and hands-on education, yet from Bogotá to
Budapest an increasing number of professionals are deeply involved in
the convergence of networked communication, arts& science &
technology projects, environmental issues and urban space. The
explosion of this new ecology has not been pre-planned; it is mainly
due to a tremendous interest by the emerging generation, whose daily
reality has profoundly changed and is often in conflict with certain
rigid educational concepts.</font><br>
