EPISODE 27 (Nov 2023): EDUCATION IS THE ANSWER! Now, what was the question?
We - Beth, Mike, & Dave - are educators, so naturally we all believe deeply in the value of learning at all stages of life. We advocate for “education” as an answer to many if not most questions, problems, concerns, and issues that people face individually and collectively. But, let’s get more specific about what this really means today and tomorrow specifically in library and information science education, in formal school settings, and even more broadly in society. In this episode we delve into the nature of education as well as the various means to gaining desired knowledge and skills.
This episode also includes, in addition to our Main Topic, our other regular features:
- Wazzup?
- AI Watch
- Awesome Library Thingy
Enjoy!
