Brilliant piece by our own George Siemens on his thoughts on visiting the White House for a special meeting on higher education. There's a strong US-centric focus to George's report, understandably enough, but many of the issues he speaks of resonate internationally. Things are changing, and the change is coming soon, and George is very good at pinning down the implications of that. A worthwhile read for anyone with an interest in the future of higher education.
