With the holiday season approaching, it turns out that the flow of EdTech news is not slowing down. With that in mind, I’d like to share a few updates.

Podcast Episode

In addition to our inaugural three episodes in the Online Education Across the Atlantic podcast (Neil Mosley, Glenda Morgan, and myself), we have a new episode to share. The podcast is available with Apple, Spotify, Google, or any of your favorite podcast players.

We first discuss the latest EdTech news, including the financial turmoil at 2U, the even-greater turmoil at OpenAI and what that might mean for EdTech, and the new Times Higher Education ranking of online programs. Then we take a deeper dive into recent data and analysis on online education enrollment trends.

There are two updates or clarifications that I’d like to share based on online conversations around the article.
