The boundaries between segments hold tremendous potential, especially for both academic and CTE dual enrollment. Allowing this to be managed and tracked at the level of students and families, and schools and colleges is critical. However, without adequate software or personal technology these type of strategic and accessible dual enrollment options and pathways are only available to a tiny fraction of the school population and have to managed with adequate human resourcing, which is difficult in budget constrained times.

Yesterday at the Louisiana Higher Education Meauxmentum Summit, the Louisiana Board of Regents announced a $400,000 grant from Strada Education Foundation. This grant will support the College to Career Ready: Enhancing Work-Based Learning Experiences for Public Postsecondary Degree Programs initiative. The Louisiana Board of Regents will research public postsecondary degree programs to better understand how various Work-Based Learning Experience (WBLE) practices impact students' ongoing success after graduation. This research will study the impact of designing WBLE that adheres to an evidence-based framework designed to promote overall social mobility with outcomes of higher earnings, career confidence, and satisfaction for all students.

Start of a new academic year in National College of Ireland, my 22nd year!! Looking forward, but also looking back on some great memories since I joined in August 2003, and remembering two special people who are no longer around but never forgotten: Eoin Fennessy (Class of 2004) and Dr John J Lynch. #highereducation #university #alumni #accountingeducation #financialeducation #businesseducation #businessresearch

2023 for me was a year of personal growth and professional development. The highlight of the year were courses in Strategic Decisions and Risk Management through UT’s Texas Executive Education program. Looking forward, I’m excited about continuing my learning and improvement journey in 2024 by focusing on building awareness and applying the processes and behaviors that promote improved decision making both at work and at home to ensure Decision Quality. What will you be learning about in 2024 to continue your personal/professional growth? #DecisionQuality #leadershipdevelopment #MitigatingBiases #strategicdecisionmaking #continuouslearning #criticalthinking

I'm looking forward Times Higher Education's Student Success summit, where I will be diving into one of the most discussed and contested value propositions for generative AI in education: personalized learning. As the capabilities and shortcomings of GAI technologies continue to develop at a frenetic pace, and as learning- and education-centered examinations of GAI identify opportunities and challenges that go beyond the hype cycle, the slogans, and the influencers' talking points, we need to unpack what we imagine when we invoke the "personalized" in educational settings, how we implicitly are conveying an understanding (or not) of how learning happens and what enables it, and the alignment (or not) between GAI technologies and the relationships we want to build with and among our students.
