Minerva: A New Kind of Higher Education

UC Berkeley will be featuring founding Dean, Dr. Stephen Kosslyn to report on year one of a unique undergraduate program. In his talk entitled ""Minerva: A New Kind of Higher Education"" he will be speaking on key aspects of the Minerva program. This ground-breaking education program globally immerses students of the virtual campus as they study in cities around the world. The Minerva Schools at the Keck Graduate Institute (KGI), established in 2014, is a four-year undergraduate program founded as a partnership between the Minerva Project and KGI. Minerva’s founder, Ben Nelson, former Snapfish president, has scrapped every commonly held assumption about how people should be educated. Minerva offers a newly invented curriculum, cultural immersion, and small interactive online seminars to prepare students to become global leaders and innovators.

I don't understand how I can apply this to my own studying. I am learning the craft of drawing. As in I want to develop my skills in the art of seeing the world as is, Imagine the world as it could be. And Draw the world trough what I see or imagine. So far I've dedicated the first month to learning to see and practising the graphic/flat skill. So far its been working.

Great system, but the only thing is left behind: anxiety of the students. Comments in quora shows that it seems to be a major problem of such system.

Why didn't the train engineer simply put on the brakes? Nothing was said about them being present or not present.

New does not mean good, as minerva proves.

[@siblings7203]

What do you mean??? Is minerva not a good university?

@@siblings7203 ‘good’ is subjective I guess, but you couldn’t pay me to go there
