December 27, 2023 update - I strongly suggest readers skim “How Do I Trust Entities??? Different Levels of Identity & Credential Assurance - A Thought Paper ” and “My Learning Journey ”.


I've created a new learning architecture which this article dives into.

First some background...

In the 90's I chaired my school district's technology committee, which resulted in our district becoming one of the first in Canada to have fiber optic wired to most of its schools. I was behind building a new technology leveraging school, and am past president of Skills Canada BC and Skills Canada. In short, I am fascinated with learning.

Premises:

Based on all my experiences, I have the following premises:

  • It requires a complete rethink in human and AI System/Bot legal identities
  • The technology changes allow us to begin rethinking the current education system
  • Before applying any technology to learning, we first need to understand each child, their learning abilities, motor/sight/hearing abilities, abilities to work with others, aptitudes, etc.??Then we can bring resources to bear to assist the child in learning
  • Continual monitoring, assessment and updating the learner’s learning digital twin, with resulting changes to their learning plans
  • Due to AI and connectivity, assessments will be forced to change, i.e. old-style assessments won’t work well in the new age

New Learning Vision

Skim these three papers to see the new learning vision:

Assessment

Skim this article to see my thoughts on assessments in the workplace and schools in the not so distant future:

Learning Credentials LSSI

During the time Jane's in school, and after she graduates, her parents/legal guardians, and/or Jane, should be in control of her learning self-sovereign identity. This should include courses taken, marks, certification, etc. This is a different spin than Jane having to ask the school district or provincial Ministry of Education to send her transcripts to a post-secondary institution, or to an employer to verify what she's taken.

Digital Learning Twin Continues With Jane for Her Life

In this fast paced, changing planet we live on, Jane will likely be required to update her skills repeatedly. Jane Doe should be in legal control of her digital learning twin as she graduates and comes of legal age. With her consent, she can allow her employers and whomever, to use the digital learning twin to quickly customize training for Jane. It benefits not only Jane, but the employer in reducing time to learn things.

Yes, It's a Learning Revolution

The schools I went to in Alberta, Canada and the schools my kids went to in BC, Canada aren't going to work well in this new age. It requires a rethink of learning.

Having said this, I'm a person who likes to deploy complex systems that sustain themselves long after I'm over the horizon. Thus, I always tell my clients to crawl, walk and run.

The thought paper recognizes this. It breaks down the change into smaller bite sized chunks. While it's wonderful to contemplate a digital learning twin, etc., all of this has to be designed, created, tested, redesigned, etc. I recommend doing this in fast, iterative phases, learning as we go.

About Guy Huntington

I'm an identity trailblazing problem solver. My past clients include Boeing, Capital One and the Government of Alberta's Digital Citizen Identity & Authentication project. Many of my past projects were leading edge at the time in the identity/security space. I've spent the last eight years working my way through creating a new legal identity architecture and leveraging this to then rethink learning.

I've also done a lot in education as a volunteer over my lifetime.?This included chairing my school district's technology committee in the 90's - which resulted in wiring most of the schools with optic fiber, behind building a technology leveraged school, and past president of Skills Canada BC and Skills Canada.

I do short term consulting for Boards, C-suites and Governments, assisting them in readying themselves for the arrival of AI systems, bots and AI leveraged, smart digital identities of humans.

I've written LOTS about the change coming. Skim the?over 100 LinkedIn articles ?I've written,?or my webpage ?with lots of papers.

Quotes I REALLY LIKE!!!!!!:

  • We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them” – Albert Einstein
  • “Change is hard at first, messy in the middle and gorgeous at the end.” – Robin Sharma
  • “Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past or present are certain to miss the future” – John F. Kennedy

A 100,000-Foot Level Summary Of Legal Human Identity

  • Each person when they’re born has their legal identity data plus their forensic biometrics (fingerprints, and later when they can keep their eyes open – their iris) entered into a new age CRVS system (Civil Registration Vital Statistics - birth, name/gender change, marriage/divorce and death registry) with data standards
  • The CRVS writes to an external database, per single person, the identity data plus their forensic biometrics called a SOLICT “Source of Legal Identity & Credential Truth).?The person now controls this
  • As well, the CRVS also writes to the SOLICT legal identity relationships e.g. child/parent, cryptographically linking the SOLICTs.?So Jane Doe and her son John will have cryptographic digitally signed links showing their parent/child.?The same methodology can be used for power of attorney/person, executor of estate/deceased, etc.
  • The SOLICT in turn then pushes out the information to four different types of LSSI Devices “Legal Self-Sovereign Identity”; physical ID card, digital legal identity app, biometrically tied physical wristband containing identity information or a chip inserted into each person
  • The person is now able, with their consent, to release legal identity information about themselves.?This ranges from being able to legally, anonymously prove they’re a human (and not a bot), above or below age of consent, Covid vaccinated, etc.?It also means they can, at their discretion, release portions of their identity like gender, first name, legal name, address, etc.
  • NOTE: All consents granted by the person are stored in their SOLICT
  • Consent management for each person will be managed by their PIAM “Personal Identity Access Management) system.?This is AI leveraged, allowing the person, at their discretion, to automatically create consent legal agreements on the fly
  • It works both locally and globally, physically and digitally anywhere on the planet
  • AI systems/bots are also registered, where risk requires it, in the new age CRVS system
  • Governance and continual threat assessment, is done by a new, global, independent, non-profit funded by a very small charge per CRVS event to a jurisdiction to a maximum yearly amount.

A 100,000-Foot Level Summary Of The Learning Vision:

  • When the learner is a toddler, with their parents’ consent, they’ll be assessed by a physical bot for their learning abilities.?This will include sight, sound, hearing and smell, as well as hand-eye coordination, how they work or don’t work with others, learning abilities, all leveraging biometric and behavioral data
  • All consents given on behalf of the learner or, later in the learner’s life by the learner themselves, are stored in the learner’s SOLICT “Source of Legal Identity & Credential Truth”
  • This is fed into a DLT “Digital Learning Twin”, which is created and legally bound to the learner
  • The DLT the produces its first IEP “Individualized Education Plan”, for the learner
  • The parents take home with them a learning assistant bot to assist the learner, each day, in learning.?The bot updates the DLT, which in turn continually refines the learner’s IEP
  • All learning data from the learner is stored in their LDV “Learner Data Vault”
  • When the learner’s first day of school comes, the parents prove the learner and their identities and legal relationship with the learner, via their LSSI devices (Legal Self-Sovereign Identity)
  • With their consent, they approve how the learner’s identity information will be used not only within the school, but also in AI/AR/VR learning environments
  • As well, the parents give their consent for the learner’s DLT, IEP and learning assistant bot to be used, via their PIAM (Personal Identity Access Management) and the learner’s PIAM
  • The schools LMS “Learning Management System” instantly takes the legal consent agreements, plus the learner’s identity and learning information, and integrates this with the school’s learning systems
  • From the first day, each learner is delivered a customized learning program, continually updated by both human and AI system/bot learning specialists, as well as sensors, learning assessments, etc.
  • All learner data collected in the school, is stored in the learner’s LDV
  • If the learner enters any AI/AR/VR type learning environment, consent agreements are created instantly on the fly with the learner, school, school districts, learning specialists, etc.?
  • These specify how the learner will be identified, learning data use, storage, deletion, etc.
  • When the learner acquires learning credentials, these are digitally signed by the authoritative learning authority, and written to the learner’s SOLICT.
  • The SOLICT in turn pushes these out to the learner’s LSSI devices
  • The learner is now in control of their learning credentials
  • When the learner graduates, they’ll be able, with their consent, to offer use of their DLT, IEP and LDV to employers, post-secondary, etc.?This significantly reduces time and costs to train or help the learner learn
  • The learner continually leverages their DLT/IEP/LDV until their die i.e., it’s a lifelong learning system
  • IT’S TRANSFORMATIONAL OVER TIME, NOT OVERNIGHT

Hi Steve, My thoughts are the education system is ripe for a rethink. Today, it's primarily a teaching system with learning as an outcome. What I want to work toward is a learning system focussed on the learner, bringing whatever resources, people, bots, etc. together, tailored towards them learning. Technology is just a tool, not an endpoint. Thus, by first focussing on how the learner learns, technology may or may not be leveraged along their learning journey. Then there's student privacy... All the oddles of papers I've written show we are rapidly entering what I call a non-private world. The use of behavioral/biometrics, each second, is recorded, sold to companies like Google, Facebook et al, used to predict our behavior and then sold to others. As entities like Google Classroom et al quickly spread into the classrooms during the pandemic, very, very few folks understand this data potentially flows into these types of databases, to be used, long after the student graduates, to predict their behavior. The waves of change are lapping up against the traditional education system walls. Guy

Thanks Guy Huntington. This is particularly relevant at this time with students working remotely across numerous platforms. There has been a lot of discussion about the security of Zoom but the deeper issues you mention here tend to be avoided. #biometrics #identity #digitalidentity
