The perfomative demonstration of education

I referred to this in my course (I'm still adding the last few videos) so I may as well reference it here. Ben Werdmüller writes that he "only began to appreciate more recently is how important enterprise education is: particularly when it comes to the certifications required to do business in well-regulated industries." And the problem, he writes, is that "informal learning doesn't really fit into this model." I won't say this is nothing I've heard before. From the point of view of providers, "we don't care so much about actually educating people. We care about showing that we have educated people." Would understanding this have helped him put better tools into the hands of educators, as he suggests? Or would it have just produced yet another LMS? Image: Faculty Focus.
