Integrated Higher Education:Creating a Future-Ready Workforce of
T-shaped Adaptive Innovators
Question 3
• What does this committee need to know about the employers perspective on higher education? What are employers looking for and how can students a.) develop these skills and b.) demonstrate to employers that they have these skills?

• In the age of accelerations, industry prefers T-shaped experienced talent from acquired companies, over hiring I-shaped students
• Employers are looking for talent that has completed projects – what would you do with 100 workers?
• Degrees, courses, and specific skills, matter most in the context of projects with clear empathy and outcomes– Especially important are
projects that used open technologies (OT)

Hi-Ed Culture Change: All courses change some every year and include projects.
Faculty, students, and industry professionals as lifelong learners.
• Problem (too static)
– A: Input: Student quality
– B: Process: Faculty motivation
– C: Output: Industry fit
• Solution (change systematically)
– A: -20% eLearning certification
– B. +10% Faculty interest tuning (publications)
– C. +10% On-the-job skills tuning (projects)
Year 1: 20%
Year 2: 20%
Year 3: 20%
Year N: 20%
. . . . . . . .
After a decade the course may look quite differentService systems are learning systems: productivity, quality, etc.
Projects: Include studying relevant startups/innovators, and building networks to them.

Steps Toward a Next GenerationCognitive Curriculum
• 2016• “How to build a cognitive system for Q&A task.”• 9 months to 40% question answering accuracy• 1-2 years for 90% accuracy, which questions to reject
• 2026• “How to use cognitive assistants to be a better professional X.”• Tools to build a student level Q&A from textbook in 1 week
• 2036• “How to use your cognitive mediator to build a startup.”• Tools to build faculty level Q&A for textbook in one day• Cognitive mediator knows a person better (in some ways)
than they know themselves (identity & responsibility)
• 2046 & 2056• “How to manage your workforce of digital workers.”• 2046: 10 digital workers each; 2056: 100 digital workers each

Question 1
• Do you think that educational experiences that integrate the humanities and arts with science, technology, engineering, math, and/or medicine would better prepare students for the workforce than the traditional liberal arts model of higher education? If so, why? If not, why?
4/5/2017© IBM Cognitive Open Technologies 2017
16
• Yes, PB_AC_MT_LSE_OT– PB: Project-based– AC: Authentic challenges/empathy– MT: Multidisciplinary teams– LSE: Like startup experience– OT: Open technologies
• Why?– Age of accelerations– Better building blocks (OT)– Make-a-job, not take-a-job
mindset (grit, growth)
• Requires Hi-Ed culture change– Old: Prepare + launch– New: Projects + lifelong learners
Question 2
• If you were going to design a college curriculum for someone who hoped to become a T-shaped professional, what would that curriculum look like? Which aspect of the curriculum would contribute to the deep part of the “T” and which to the broad parts of the “T”? Would any parts of this curriculum be integrative?
4/5/2017© IBM Cognitive Open Technologies 2017
17
• PB_AC_MT_LSE_OT• Deep = major courses• Broad = minors courses• T = integrated education that
demonstrates empathy and outcomes via projects
• Every course– Reflect Hi-Ed culture change– Courses evolve and include a
mini-project with workforce partnerships
– Builds a network for learners– Theme: Rapid rebuilding from
scratch with OT (resource integration pathways)

Liberal Arts: Knowing + Doing
• Deep understanding of history, culture, literature, philosophy, mathematics, physical and sociale sciences, technology, and traditions of interpretation (world views) with the goal of creating independent thinkers capable of critical thinking and lifelong learning
• Knowing: Liberals arts can contribute to the breadth of T-shaped professionals, especially well-informed critical thinking skills who are lifelong learners
• Doing: Projects also contribute to breadth, especially teamwork and project management skills, and the right kind of projects may appeal to future employers

Today’s Talk: Integrated Education
• Context• Open Technologies and Age of Accelerations
• Science of Smarter/Wiser Service Systems
• Digital Cognitive Systems: AI vs IA
• Liberal Arts: Knowing + Doing
• Questions and Responses• (1) Integrated Education = ? (PB_AC_MT_LSE_OT)
• (2) T-shapes = ? (Depth and breadth integrated by projects; empathy and outcomes that matter)
• (3) Industry wants = ? (T-shaped lifelong learners;effective resource integrators; adaptive innovators )

Digital Cognitive Systems: AI vs IA
4/5/2017 © IBM Cognitive Open Technologies 2017 23
AI is Artificial Intelligence, orintelligence in machines (smart machines)
IA is Intelligence Augmentation, orpeople thinking and working together with smart machines.
IA is what IBM calls “Cognitive Computing” andthe smart machines are called “Watson Solutions” or
more generally “Digital Cognitive Systems (Cogs)”
Cognition as a Service (CaaS): AI building blocks for IA solutions

Some paths to becoming 64x smarter:Improving learning and performance
• 2x from Learning sciences (methods)– Better models of concepts – Better models of learners
• 2x from Learning technology (tools)– Guided learning paths– Elimination of “thrashing”
• 2x from Quantity effect (overlaps)– More you know, faster you go– Advanced organizers
• 2x from Lifelong learning (time)– Longer lives and longer careers– Keeps “learning-mode” activated
• 2x from Early learning (time)– Start earlier: Challenged-based approach– STEM-2D in K-12 (SSME+DAPP Design of Smart Service Systems)
• 2x from Cognitive systems (performance support)– Technology & Infrastructure Interactions– Organizations & Others Interactions

Top 10 Skills
4/5/2017 Understanding Cognitive Systems 31
Jobs of the Future
4/5/2017 Understanding Cognitive Systems 32
In sum, the top job of the future will be…
• Knowing what to do with 100 people working for you!• What is the most productive purpose to point them towards?
• What goals create the most value for business and society?
• That is the world we are entering with digital cognitive systems (DCS)• No shortage of DCS workers…
• …but what would you do with 100 people/DCS working for you?
• Most people don’t have any idea…• However, great entrepreneurs do have an idea
• Education of the future must teach students to work in teams
• Work on challenges in teams with no solutions
• This will require T-shaped professionals with depth and breadth

Service Science• Service System Entities
– Types: Businesses, Universities, Governments, etc.– Nested & Networked Globally– SD Logic (A2A; Resource Integrators)
• Value Co-Creation Interactions– Types: Value-Proposition & Governance Mech-based– Collaboration & Competition Blended– SD Logic (Operant & Operant Resources)
• Builds On…– Decades of Service Research (Marketing, Operations, etc.)– SSME+D; From I to T to Pi-shapes… and beyond!– T Summit (March 24-25, 2014)
• Measures– Productivity, Quality, Compliance, Sustainable Innovation– Holistic Service Systems
• Quality of Life, Balance Challenge & Routine• Innovativeness, Equity, Sustainability, Resilience

“The future is already here (at universities),it is just not evenlydistributed.”
“The best way topredict the futureis to (inspire the nextgeneration of studentsto) build it better.”
“Multilevel nested, networked holistic service systems (HSS) that provision whole service (WS) tothe people inside them. WS includes flows (transportation, water, food, energy, communications), development (buildings,retail ,finance, health,
education), and governance (city, state, nation). ”

Why ISSIP? T-shapes for
Teamwork• Our world is becoming more
interconnected and complex
• Yet most organizations operate is silos
• Most professional organizations do a great job of focusing on one discipline, function, or industry sector
ISSIP is a professional society designed to focus on the interconnected nature of value co-creation for smart service systems (tech, biz, social, etc.)
