We found a kindred thinker in education futurologist, John Moravec at the University of Minnesota — take a look at his vision for Society 3.0 (that’s us!). Moravec describes members of Society 3.0 as agents of:
- change
- globalization
- innovation fueled by knowmads (“nomadic knowledge workers”)
Sound familiar? A key aspect of Society 3.0 involves online open access, crowd sourcing that promotes sharing, remixing, and capitalizing on new ideas. We know that much of this happens through online communities – where knowmads gather in virtual spaces to push ideas into reality.
