In Task 12, we were presented with the challenge of creating two speculative narratives about our potential relationship with media, education, text, and technology in the next 30 years.<\/p>\n

I have decided to present my speculative narratives in the form of podcasts. I have been listening to many audiobooks lately and have found them to be a good way to digest information on the go. I have also found that audio helps me better visualize the context and situation of a narrative.<\/p>\n

  1. “Class Act” – An artificial intelligence (“AI”) solution for post-secondary students.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    In my first speculative narrative, I explore “Class Act”, an artificial intelligence earbud that can tap into the brain waves as well as the auditory, visual, and tactile stimuli experienced by users to suggest and implement real-time learning interventions. Since Class Act is tapped into the brain waves of the user, the learning interventions can be presented in the form of visual or auditory resources or immersive simulations that consider the user’s contexts and backgrounds.<\/p>\n
