California Leading a Transformation of Higher Education

In How California’s Online Education Pilot Will End College As We Know It

Gregory Ferenstein (Tuesday, January 15th, 2013) made six prediction about the end of college as we know it today…

“If I had to predict how the fallout of this pilot will go, here’s my timeline:
1. Pilot succeeds, expands to more universities and classes
2. Part-time faculty get laid off, more community colleges are shuttered, extracurricular college services are closed, and humanities and arts departments are dissolved for lack of enrollment (science enrollment increases–yay!?)
3. Graduate programs dry up, once master’s and PhD students realize there are no teaching jobs. Fewer graduate students means fewer teaching assistants and, therefore, fewer classes
4. Competency-based measures begin to find the online students perform on par with, if not better than, campus-based students. Major accredited state college systems offer fully online university degrees, then shutter more and more college campuses
5. A few Ivy League universities begin to control most of the online content, as universities all over the world converge toward the classes that produce the highest success rates
6. In the near future, learning on a college campus returns to its elite roots, where a much smaller percentage of students are personally mentored by research and expert faculty”

Pretty grim… or imagine a more exciting role for faculty than ever before in history…

Carlos Baradello Academic Global Immersion
http://carlosbaradello.com/

 

Returning to Ferenstein’s grim predictions,  which should be read carefully and critically to understand the logic being applied to reach these predictions, versus others…

Ferenstein’s predictions are based on a logic of university as “knowledge transfer mission” only – leaving out the growing role of “knowledge creation” (research) and “knowledge application” (entrepreneurship) and “knowledge integration” (over coming silo effect to create better systems thinkers), as well as several other key roles of universities in local communities. The disruption of one business model is likely to accelerate the institutional evolution and growth of other business models. Carlos Baradello’s blog post illustrates a much more engaged role for faculty and students in the future, where the wisdom and experience of faculty expand the horizons of students..

Carlos Baradello’s blog post is more consonant with the logic one sees in Phil Auerswald “The Coming Prosperity”

Reality probably lies somewhere in the middle.

A MOOC for Kickstarter can help accelerate the transformation in a positive way – shifting from “knowledge transfer” (teaching coach) to more “knowledge application” (entrepreneurship coach) for faculty and student teams. When one thinks about the students getting jobs or starting companies after graduation – the MOOC for Kickstarter could become a valuable resume-builder and launch pad for the student teams. Of course, MOOCs for all kinds of things beside Kickstarter will be coming to help the transformation of student outcomes upon graduation, and to help faculty shift to a new value creation point in their relationship to each other and students — also see these…

UK Studentship at Cranfield University on Aerospace Cost Model

Rolls-Royce & Cranfield PhD Studentship – Integrating Manufacturing Process Capabilities into Aerospace Cost Model

Application deadline:15 February 2013
Supervisor:Dr Essam Shehab
Duration of award: 3 Years

Supported by Rolls-Royce and EPSRC, a studentship with up to £17,000 p.a. for 3 years plus fees* is available

Cranfield University have a collaborative research opportunity with Rolls-Royce, which aims to analyse process capability data for developing manufacturing process cost model which take into consideration uncertainty factors.

Manufacturing process cost models are key building blocks for developing component family template cost models and whole engine cost models in Rolls-Royce. The process cost models should be generic and be driven by relevant process variables. The Research will focus on EDM (Electro Discharge Machining) which is a key process in manufacturing of film cooling holes for Turbine Blades

Working as part of a wider cost engineering research team, this research will build on a previous project, which developed an initial data collection of EDM. The overall project objectives are to:

1. Conduct a comprehensive literature to identify the type of EDM processes as utilised in aerospace component manufacturing.
2. Identify the key EDM process variables and modelling their interactions.
3. Build the process cost model from statistical analysis of historical data.
4. Identify and model uncertainty in manufacturing information.
5. Quantify the risk due to the manufacturing uncertainty through Monte-Carlo analysis.
6. Validate the developed model through case studies and experts judgment.

The successful candidate will be based between the manufacturing and materials department at the Cranfield campus and Rolls-Royce in Derby.

Technical Schools Research Students Training Programme

The successful candidate will attend Cranfield University’s Technical Schools Research Students Training Programme which is designed to equip students with research skills required during their research studies and in their future careers. This programme consists of a series of one-day events, coupled with smaller interactive group sessions.

Doctoral Training Centres

This higher research degree is associated with one of our Doctoral Training Centre, which is funded in part by the Research Councils and industry. A generic core skills training programme is provided for all research students. This is structured as a series of half day or full day events and acts as a social and networking forum to foster and develop Cranfield’s research student community.

Entry Requirements

Applicants should have a First or Second Class UK honours degree, or equivalent, in a relevant discipline such manufacturing and mechanical engineering. Strong manufacturing engineering knowledge, good interpersonal and communication skills and computer literacy are also required.

Funding

*Supported by Rolls-Royce and EPSRC, this studentship will cover the tuition fees at the UK/EU rate only and provide a bursary of up to £17,000 p.a for three years. To be eligible for this funding applicants must be:
• UK nationals or
• EU nationals resident in UK for 3 years, including full time education are eligible for tuition fees and bursary.
All EU nationals are eligible to receive a fees-only award if they do not have ‘settled status’ in the UK.

HSSE-2014 Session: Educating Service Innovators on the Human Side of Service Systems

HSSE 2014 (2nd International Conference on Human Side of Service Engineering) is held from 7/19 to 23 in 2014 at Krakow.

HSSE-2014 Session:  Educating Service Innovators on the Human Side of Service Systems

Description: The growing number of courses, programs, and textbooks aimed at the education of service innovators is encouraging, but much more work remains to be done, especially to highlight the human-side of  service systems (https://service-science.info/archives/1931).  Individual people, business and social enterprises, and governments are all types of service system entities with capabilities, constraints, rights, and responsibilities.  This session will bring together members of the newly formed ISSIP.org who are leading thinkers from academia, industry, and policymaking to discuss best practices and future directions. The challenge of course is the breadth of concepts and models required to study service systems, and the resources they dynamically configure via value propositions and governance mechanisms. The acronym SSME+PAD (Service Science Management Engineering, and Policymaking Arts Design) hints at the breadth. Nevertheless, the systems-disciplines matrix , concept of T-shaped professionals with both depth and breadth, open service system research data efforts (big data, analytics), new directions in Computer-Aided-Design tools for service systems including cities (smarter planet, holistic product-service systems), all suggest that the education of service innovators is making steady progress. T-shaped service innovators with PhDs are especially needed in industry service research groups, where process improvements are needed for (1) improving existing service offerings, (2) creating new service offerings, (3) improving acquisitions and divestitures, (4) improving customer and partner capabilities, (5) improving patent and IP processes, (6) improving knowledge creation and publication processes. We especially invite faculty, students, corporate service researchers/practitioners, and government policymakers to attend this session. Prior to the session, we plan to do a global survey of best practices to identify course materials and case studies that can be shared.

HSSE-2014 Session: Developing Talent for the Service Science Enterprise

HSSE 2014 (2nd International Conference on Human Side of Service Engineering) is held from 7/19 to 23 in 2014 at Krakow.

HSSE-2014 Session:  Developing Talent (Adaptive Innovators) for the Service Science Enterprise

Description:   The “T-shaped professional” has served as a metaphor for the type of professional talent needed to propel the service science enterprise.  Our challenge now is to advance of our understanding of the T-shaped or adaptive innovator through empirical studies on the development of and professional advancement of these professionals.  The characteristics and experiences required for T-development will vary depending on the career stage of individuals from pre-professional, early careerists to mid-career.  This session will explore T-shaped professionals at various career stages.  Participants will also discuss the gaps in research that need to be addressed.
