This book was released on 1996 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers an academic programs approach to rethinking the future mission of land grant colleges and universities and presents a philosophical framework for making curricular changes in all of higher education in agriculture to better prepare graduates for the future. Here "agriculture" is understood to mean the entire scope of the life-support system that includes food and fiber, natural resources, and environmental integrity and the social and economic systems that relate to these areas. And at the heart of the ideas presented here is a proposed redefinition of higher education in agriculture as "the educational, scientific, and scholarly framework for the understanding, development, management, and use of biologically and ecologically based systems and relevant human resources systems for the benefit of human and natural societies." It is an invaluable resource for building strong, vital higher education programs in agriculture for the future.
Download or read book Transforming Agricultural Education for a Changing World written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2009-11-16 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the next ten years, colleges of agriculture will be challenged to transform their role in higher education and their relationship to the evolving global food and agricultural enterprise. If successful, agriculture colleges will emerge as an important venue for scholars and stakeholders to address some of the most complex and urgent problems facing society. Such a transformation could reestablish and sustain the historical position of the college of agriculture as a cornerstone institution in academe, but for that to occur, a rapid and concerted effort by our higher education system is needed to shape their academic focus around the reality of issues that define the world's systems of food and agriculture and to refashion the way in which they foster knowledge of those complex systems in their students. Although there is no single approach to transforming agricultural education, a commitment to change is imperative.

Download or read book Revolutionizing Education in the Age of AI and Machine Learning written by Habib, Maki K. and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2019-09-15 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Artificial Intelligence (AI) serves as a catalyst for transformation in the field of digital teaching and learning by introducing novel solutions to revolutionize all dimensions of the educational process, leading to individualized learning experiences, teachers playing a greater role as mentors, and the automation of all administrative processes linked to education. AI and machine learning are already contributing to and are expected to improve the quality of the educational process by providing advantages such as personalized and interactive tutoring with the ability to adjust the content and the learning pace of each individual student while assessing their performance and providing feedback. These shifts in the educational paradigm have a profound impact on the quality and the way we live, interact with each other, and define our values. Thus, there is a need for an earnest inquiry into the cultural repercussions of this phenomenon that extends beyond superficial analyses of AI-based applications in education. Revolutionizing Education in the Age of AI and Machine Learning addresses the need for a scholarly exploration of the cultural and social impacts of the rapid expansion of artificial intelligence in the field of education including potential consequences these impacts could have on culture, social relations, and values. The content within this publication covers such topics as AI and tutoring, role of teachers, physical education and sports, interactive E-learning and virtual laboratories, adaptive curricula development, support critical thinking, and augmented intelligence and it is designed for educators, curriculum developers, instructional designers, educational software developers, education consultants, academicians, administrators, researchers, and professionals.
