http://youtu.be/8YQTEdTm6ec

The cloudy future of higher education: we must stick our heads out of the ivory lecture halls and recognize that soon the vast majority of young Africans have smart phones, Wikipedia and the rest of OA knowledge at their finger tips, and not knowledge content but knowledge methods will be needed|: - How to access the right knowledge?
- How to discern trustworthy knowledge?
- How to generate data, analyse, synthesize, interpret, evaluate, critique?
- How to move from know-what to know-how and back.
Etc,....
