Emerging Technologies - 
Face to face - correspondence?

If you don't study - you shall not pass. This rhetoric, accompanied with Study Skills.
If you are not adapting, a plan to change, then...

 Education 3.0
Learning - "anyone can learn from anyone at anytime"

Experiences, possibilities

 Flexible opportunities - learning - pushing boundaries and edges
