(1/2) 37 years ago today I submitted my proposal for the World Wide Web 🎂. Today, Rosemary & I spoke with students in New Orleans at Walter Isaacson's Digital History Class @tulaneu.bsky.social. I was asked, as I often am, if I ever could have foreseen where we’d be today. I could not.
KMi’s Dr Mikroyannidis shared new research at #INTED2026 from responsible AI in online learning to a new framework for experiential microlearning. KMi is leading the way in ethical, innovative digital education.
