The future of education will surely not be bound by gathering in the same place or studying at the same time.
It will provide an environment where students can freely study their interests.
I believe that what’s important is how that education leads to emergence.
We live in an era where crea t ions can intermingle to create new creations previously unimagined.
Let’s make emergence.
