Digital Platforms Are the Most Profitable Companies on the Planet, and Poised to Transform Education...
A former software engineer, Principal Zeimer takes readers through an in-depth evaluation of how digital technology and economics are poised to transform education by examining the concept of academic capital.
A MINDSET SHIFT
FROM: INDUSTRIAL TO: DIGITAL
FROM: Students are consumers of information
TO: Students are producers of academic content (the heart of academic capital)
FROM: More stuff represents prosperity
TO: Human attention (active users) represent prosperity
FROM: Students identify "correct" answer as fast as possible
TO: Students think critically about questions that they design
FROM: Broadcasting
TO: Narrowcasting
FROM: Boss decides what to produce which is pushed to consumers with marketing ("supply side")
TO: Users decide what to produce and they pull items into existence ("Demand side")
FROM: It costs money to distribute goods and services leading to economies of scale (monopoly dynamics)
TO: Distribution is free and instant leading to network effects (winner-takes-all dynamics)
FROM: Security means armed guards and guns, stormtroopers
TO: Security means encryption, hackers
FROM: Ownership (owning capital leads to profits / Zero-sum dynamics)
TO: Sharing (Uber has no cars, Airbnb no homes, AliBaba no stores / positive-sum dynamics)
FROM: The corporation / "having a job" / centralized
TO: The Platform / "doing work" / crowdsourced
FROM: Movement of physical atoms of stuff
TO: Movement of electrons
FROM: Groupthink of the executive team
TO: "Mass identities" manipulate "the crowd"
