Stanford President John Hennessey and Salman Khan of the Khan Academy discuss higher education and digital technology. Lots of the issues of online education are aired. Salman Khan continues to impress me. I like his distinction between learning and credentialing. Online education will grow to the extent that credentialing innovations give it value. To “bend the cost curve” such credentialing innovations will be required.
