2025 will be my 53rd year of visioning ai fitting livelihoods millennials need to be the first renewable generation- any place failing tto vale youth's generative mission will be taken over by misery and backward looking jealousies insted of celebrating tech tools with which can colectively achieve anything good. I understand its abnormal but who trust our kid's educational needs is the only criteria owrthy of your vote
Along the way best ideas I have seen fit a transformational education jigsaw instead of failing a child wherever she falls off the graded ladder- intervene with whatever skill a child may be most missing from her or his life's needs - do you know a single family that is stress free from child's birth to 16 or whatever is youth state's age that children depend on adults; if your family had a bad or sad year its quite likely that you child missed a skill
here are some of good enough ideas I have come across (welcome help in making complete catalogue at www.abedmooc.com - abed will always be my fav educator- contributing to at least a billion girls esteem and so chnaces of productive life:
1973 uk national dev project computer asisted leraning- this focused on training undergrads in statistical methods where their subject needed numbers but neither their teachers nor they liked maths; we could train up to 50 students an hour each at online terminal across 5 geographic locations and it did the job- thats where i first saw how addictive online can be-jolly good if time is spent learning, dangerously bad if someon is manipulating or selling you; I have this strange memory of an ameri8can delegation who called themseles plato - they were disappointed at hiw wimple the UK's leading online learning stuff was; they were a;reday getting 50 times more funds for AI than we were; just to mention that I wouldnt be surprised if 90% of ai today is bunk but there is 10% that can chnage the world and we try to log who's helping who at ww.ai20s.com
montessorri schools done well these have worked from late 1920s as one room vil;age schools; eventually i got the chnace to see how 2 of the best montessori schools worked: one rteplicated 4000 times im bangkladesh - a twist on this villkge school system is that its built on paulo freire culture
althouigh i left computer assisted learning in 1976 to apply computers to deep data of marjet needs, my father was celebrating his 33rd year of adapting a survey von neumann had taught how to apply to The Economist's challenge of going from 3rd ranked weekly newpaper to one of a kind global
It suited us both in 1982 to scribble as co-authors 2025 report -an alternative future to orwell's endgame- all would be happier and more productive everywhere if ai went well in every community and place of action leraning
One of the simplest orientation devices of our 1984 book was to count back what it was statistically likely 4 bilion millemmial livelihoods would need to spend time, trust and data on by 2030. We hypothesised 1 billion jobs only possible in green economies; 1 billion jobs making every last mile community a happy, safe health space to grow up in
1 billion livelihoods depemnding on tech chanhe
amd at most 1 billion jobs that looked like the indutrial era before the intelligence tools of the NET (Neumann Einstein Turing)

Until last mnth the deep problem that seemed to be beyond 8 billion being imagination was: how to design agents personal to each persons learning and livelihood needs. Then I attended a 6 hour briefing in washoingtoin dc where experts in 3 technologies shiowed how together personal learning agency 2020s is not just posible but the only way back to un sdgs.
The 3 techs are:
AI
augmented reality spectacles (previously assumed to be metavesral)
Digital Twins
There are dozens of reasons why engineers advocate designing a virtual replicate of any architectural design be that a new factory with robots or the smartest ecver classroom with tecahers who want to learn as much as kids. Back in 2016, the first annual rebview of sdg4 was held at the UN. World bank leader Jack Kim, Jack Ma leaders from Sacndanavia and Japan clarifief that schools were wasting both students tie and teacghers time. Thee is no need to menmorise by heart what macines can now click you to. Melinda Gates and Fei-Fei li who had already launched ai-4-all wrote up a un2.0 roadmap with aiforgood genersating changews in how students spent theiur timne (Digital Cooperation), Teacheers/Adults spent their time (Digital Capacity Building). Then every unstaff memer associated with this fraeworck changed. Its veen destroted by a different group of UN officers. Nonetheless UN2024 also sees a great comeback - after 14 years of virtual hose arrest Dr Yunus has been asked to roadmap Bangladesh 2.0 He needs a standards system that at least 100 other poorest nations or those most needing green transformation need. Have a look at the people who met him at the UN. https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61563997721613 US President Joe Biden UN leader Guterres Clintons Secretary of State Antony Blinken ICC Chief Prosecutor Karim Khan UN Human Rights Volker Turks US Aid Administrator Samantha Powers Netherlands Prime Minister Dick School EU President Ursula von der Leyen Senator Dick Durbin HSBO Ceo Noel Quinn Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Qi World Bank Leader Ajay Banga South Africa President Cyril Ramaphosa Pakistan's Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni President of Maldives Nepal Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli Jane Goodall Julie Bishop, Special Envoy of the Secretary-General on Myanmar, and Filippo Grandi, United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees. NPR Michel Martin Will they take this last chance to actually tranform how we spend lifetimes from age 0 up?
The experts at ths 6 hour youtube brifing predict that before 2030 hakf of us will be wearing smart spectacles and wherever a whole group does both iqs and emotional quotents will go up 50 points per person. Thats because in the digital twin classroom theb eachjers spectacles let her know which students are struggling on what. It reminded me of 1973, the one advantage we had was printing out every students worlkiongs after the classs and seeing where common mistakes were made ; and addressing that at the next session as well as adding to our computer program so that in real time it could help a stduent with more practice on wghahtver they mpst needed.
As it happens my family freind of 17 year standing is curently charged with redesigning bangakdeh gov2/0. I am sure that when it comes to the spiul of educationain oart of that at least 100 mations need to design the simila change to their ed syem as bangladesh does/ May good bless every teacher wh is happy to chnage if this eans 100% of work for thise who want to work.
If you either have an intelligent intervention you wnat included in our openm catalogues or have a query as to who tp benchmark on any of above i live near washingtomn dc and my email remains [email protected]
