- Summary:
- Wilen-Daugenti (vice president, Apollo Research Institute) explores the technological, institutional, and demographic forces shaping family structures and work/life balances. She considers the fact that multiple generations are now seeking higher education, changing trends in women's economic roles and neoliberal globalization, mobile technology, games, and other collaboration-facilitating technologies. She brings this all to bear on building more responsive and individualized learning environments and the roles of government, business, and higher education institutions in facilitating work and education.
