Welcome everybody. Today, our panel is entitled Education 2.0, How Will It Work? That is probably an impossible task for an hour, unless I was fortunate enough to have Safina Hossein, who is Managing Director of Educate Girls, and Johan Rose, Chief Academic Officer of the Holt Business School. They both come from very different backgrounds. They both focus on very different audiences. They both live in different parts of the world. And what we decided to do with this panel is to hear their stories of how they view education, what their purpose and mission is in their respective institutions, and then dig a little deeper into those narratives to understand a little bit more about the patterns that we might see. The common patterns between what might be happening in India and what might be happening on a global scale for a university institution. And as we examine those patterns, we will observe that there are some commonalities there. There are some threats. There are some risks. And we're going to end the session with analyzing those patterns to understand what do we think about Education 2.0 and what is it going to mean for us moving forward as a global society. So first and foremost, I'd like to introduce Safina Hossein. She's the founder and executive director at Educate Girls. And I think the next few minutes that she's going to be sharing her story, you'll be quite moved and quite motivated about the work that she is doing. Safina. Hello. Good evening. My name is Safina and I started Educate Girls about 12 years ago. It is very linked to my own personal journey. I grew up in a lot of poverty and violence and abuse and my life changed when, because of a lot of wonderful things happening, I happened to go to London School of Economics and graduate from there and my life was never the same again. And that's what's really motivated me to kind of come back to India and work on this particularly difficult issue. And today I'd like to kind of talk to you about that journey and then also how COVID, the pandemic has really impacted girls' education and how can we really imagine, you know, the future. So, you know, I work really far away. I work in very rural, remote tribal areas of India. So I'm actually going to use some photographs just to be able to give you a sense of where I work and what does it really look like for me at Ground Zero. So even before the pandemic, you know, the world has had many, many problems. We've been battling with, you know, unemployment, we've been battling with malnutrition, so many children's issues. And I truly believe that girls' education, not just because of my own personal experience, but I truly believe that girls' education is that one kind of silver bullet that can help us change the world and help us solve some of the most complex problems that we're facing today. And you really don't have to take my word for it. The World Bank says that girls' education actually impacts nine of the 17 sustainable development goals. Everything from malnutrition, child marriage, all of these are impacted when girls are educated and impacted very, very positively. Recently, climate scientists have actually rated 80 actions to reverse global warming and girls' education has been at number six out of those 80 actions. And at number six, girls' education becomes rating, its rating is higher than solar panels and electric cars. So it's a truly transformative medium if we want to fight poverty, if we want to, you know, improve health, literacy, employability, income, any of those pieces, and climate change. And it's something that we just have to do once, you know, just like my own education, because I'm educated and data shows this, that educated mothers are 200% likely to educate their own children. So it's a problem of our lifetime. If we educate her, she will educate her own children and we will solve, we will close this gender and illiteracy gap forever. So I work in India where we have over 4 million out of school girls, which is one of the highest in the world.  And wherever you have these two pieces intersect where poverty and patriarchy meets, you have an exponential number of out-of-school girls. So what do we really do? So at Educate Girls, we essentially work at the ground level and we work in some of the most rural remote tribal areas that also happen to be some of the poorest and most socially marginalized. And once we go into a village, we first find what I call Team Balika. Team Balika just means the girl child. So there's a team that we create, an army of volunteers that we create for the girl child. And these are young, passionate individuals from the same village. They are hyper-local. They do want to bring about a change in their village. And what we do is that we find them, we train them, we mentor them and hand-hold them very, very deeply. And then with their support, we actually go door-to-door in a village and we find every single girl who's not going to school. And this is an image of one of our door-to-door surveys. You can see the little children peeking out from the doorway. And what you can't see here is that we do the door-to-door survey in a really smart way because most of our field staff have smartphones and we have our own app. And the data that we're collecting is actually very clean and comes to us in real time. And so because of that data, we're able to actually map where the hotspots are, where exactly are the out-of-school girls located because each of our villages is also geotagged. And based on that, we're able to build plans to bring them back into school very, very quickly. And essentially how do we bring them back to school? It's a lot of meetings. It's village meetings, neighborhood meetings, individual counseling of parents. And it can take anywhere from three weeks to three months to actually convince a parent to send their daughter back into school. And we continue to do that. We don't let it go and we actually stay in a village for almost three years minimum to make sure that that level of the enrollment gap actually gets closed. And it's not just about the community mobilization meetings, but we also then handhold the entire process of enrollment, whether it is the documentation that's required because these are all first-generation learners. Their parents have never been to school. So you really, it's a very intense approach in terms of being able to bring them all back into school and make sure that that enrollment actually happens and takes place. But enrollment is really the first step. We then work with the school administrations to make sure that the school is girl-friendly. Does it have a toilet, a separate toilet for girls? When I first started working, only 40% of the schools that I worked in had a separate toilet for girls. And really I have two daughters and I wouldn't send them to school if there wasn't a bathroom for them to be able to use. So sometimes there's a huge gender lens missing. You know, there's infrastructure which is not very girl-friendly. So we work deeply with the administrations to make sure that the schools actually are in a shape that the girls will stay in school. And then finally, all of that would be absolutely useless if we didn't focus on learning. And so our team, Balika volunteers are trained in running our supplementary learning curriculum. We're building foundational skills in Hindi, like literacy, numeracy, Hindi, English, and math. And everything is done in a very play and activity-based way to make sure that our children are actually learning to read and write more than just attending school. So our outcomes that we follow are identification of our school children who may not be on the radar and then making sure that they're enrolled, they're attending and retained, and that they are learning. And over and above that what we also do is we do a life skills program for our adolescent girls. These are girls in the grade 6th to 8th grade and also have a program working on secondary completion. So it's kind of like an end-to-end holistic program. And that's essentially the model. It's really finding the team Balika volunteer and with their support, finding out of school girls, connecting them back into school, and make sure that they are staying and learning. And what do we know after, you know, I've done this for like 12 years and we know that this model works. And our last third party evaluation report when it came out, the evaluators said, I mean, they showed that educated girls' model is able to bring 92% of all out-of-school girls back into the school system over a period of three years. And which is really because we are working in the hardest areas, it's a big validation. And secondly, in terms of learning, our children actually gained almost an additional year of schooling compared to the average students. So we know that the model works and works really well.  And we also know that the model is scalable because we're already working in over 14,000 villages. We know that it is smart because of the heavy use of data and technology. And we know that it is sustainable because it is community-owned. Our team Balikas are from the community. So the entire model is owned by the community volunteers themselves. And secondly, it's sustainable because we work in partnership with the government. So it's a very systemic model. We're not creating a parallel delivery system. We're actually working in the same rural government schools that are there and then making sure that they're actually, you know, working much better for our children. And so over a 12-year period, having built this model, knowing that it can scale, knowing that it has a very, very high impact, we actually wanted to take all of our data and analytics and really dream big. And we were like, what can we do? What is all of this information really telling us? And what we saw was that India, you know, India is a very, very large country. You can call it a subcontinent. It has 650,000 villages. But we had a great insight. We knew that 5% of villages in India actually have 40% of the out-of-school girls. So we built this big audacious dream. We said, you know what? In five years, we're actually going to get to all of these 5% of these villages, which have this largest chunk of the problem. We're going to saturate these villages and then make sure that we can actually, you know, close the gender and literacy gap forever. We'll work here and we'll deliver the results that it takes for our girls, which will mean that we would bring back 1.6 million out-of-school girls back into the system and make sure that they're staying and completing their education. And so this was this big dream, big dream, and it was all kind of going well. And then the pandemic hit and it was crazy for us. And I wanted to show you two or three more pictures and just to give you a sense of what it really did for us. First and foremost, the pandemic actually makes girls' education much worse. It's going to set us back in a big way. Here we were dreaming such big dreams and we know the data from Ebola. The number of out-of-school girls after Ebola, the data that came from Africa said, you know, that number tripled. We know the gender-based violence goes up. In the first 11 days, our helplines had almost like 92,000 SOS calls from women and girls. We know that, you know, so many because the pandemic has made the two Ps poverty and patriarchy much, much, much worse. And so the first thing that we did as the pandemic hit is, you know, what I called, you know, to tackle the two Ps, we use the three Rs. And I'm only going to describe the first couple of hours. But the first hour was about relief. And that relief was really critical for us because we know, and the relief was about hunger because the pandemic, we had a very, very strict lockdown. And we had extreme hunger in some of our villages and for some of our children. And the thing, you know, not many people realize is that because of patriarchy, women and girls are some of the last people to eat in a house.  So when you have a situation of hunger, when you know that, you know, food availability is an issue, we know that our women and girls would go hungry. So first and foremost was relief and was really the big focus was on relief. And you can see the picture here. We actually did not just delivering food to the most remote villages, but in many cases we hired even like boats to make sure that we could get food to that last most remote household and really dropping food off at somebody's home. And we covered almost half a million individuals just without relief effort. And this was the first three months of the pandemic when it hit between like, you know, starting March, we were like, this is what we really, really need to focus on. The second piece as we as we after the relief phase of the first three months, we actually focused on recovery and recovery for us is that, you know, our children will disappear. They will never come back into the school system because they haven't been anywhere close to teachers to learning to the school since March. And so the other big piece that we did was that we held actually community level learning camps. And this is just in your neighborhood and obviously these are only held if and when it is safe to do so. So we have all of this, you know, criteria for mapping your in a red zone or in a green zone or whatever. And wherever it is possible only with the permission of the government, the community, and given the COVID situation the ground, we've actually been running neighborhood based learning camps. And the main reason being that we want to be able to support our children in this very, very anxious time. This is a difficult time. There is unemployment. It's, you know, financially difficult. Emotionally, it's very hard for the children. And I remember the first time I started teaching in my village and I teach tribal kids and I don't know where to go. It was the rainy season and one of the tribal ladies, Kashi, she gave me her home. So I would sit in her home and I would teach the children inside the home. And she kind of felt like a room was too small and we couldn't do social distancing. So she actually moved her bed and everything out and put it where she cooks food like in the area next to the little room. And that's how we taught. Like, you know, day after day after day just to make sure that the children were actually getting stimulation. The children were engaged. The children felt like there was somebody to talk to. And currently our camp with these kind of community based learning is actually running for almost, you know, over the next few weeks it will get to about 100,000 children in the hardest to reach villages. And so this is, I just wanted to give you a sample of this is what we were thinking in terms of relief and in terms of recovery. But I think the big job for us is really going to be how do we reimagine how do we kind of sit back and look at everything that's happening and say, how can we build back better. And so on that note, I will hand it back to Tony. Well, I promised you a moving story and Safina that was incredible. I think it brings to light just just the passion around education and the purpose of education. And it struck me when you're when you're speaking it's kind of like, you were rethinking schooling, you figured out a way to do it at scale. You're leveraging technology to get smart about doing it. You're building it in a sustainable way because the community is involved with somebody who's literally moving their bed so that you can create space socially distance space for education is something we all believe in. And it feels like you've you've tapped into that belief and created an ecosystem that that that could that could really move and we'll get on to. So what do we do now about coven afterwards. But thank you for sharing your story. So now, Johan has worked at many, many schools, and is I've known him for a long time and is quite the innovator. And if you know anything about educational institutions that they tend to move slowly. That's when Johan's there. And so he's now going to share his story coming from a different place, a different angle, a different audience, a different part of the world. In fact, he's all over the world. But he's going to share with us a little bit of a perspective on how education, you know, might be changing when we're talking about university education. So with that, I will pass you to Johan Rose. Thank you, Tony. Yes, I have worked at many schools. But before I get into the schooling part of it, let me just say that I'm brought up in Sweden in a pretty homogenous society at that time. But I was part of a family which was always welcoming and receiving a lot of foreigners from all kinds of places in the world, and all kinds of skin colors and all kinds of background. Really, that made an imprint on me. So it was perhaps not surprising that eventually I choose to get a doctorate in international business and then had a career in in sort of academia, working in different countries. But that idea of international being the default and the national being more of a special case has lived with me since I am my upbringing and my education. So more of a reflection of me. I love international. I love global and I try to walk the talk of the last five years. I've had the privilege to work with Halt International Business School. So very different schools from what Safina talked about, but Halt is aiming at attracting students and educating students from all over the world, all over the world. We have campuses in major business cities such as Shanghai, Dubai, London, Boston, and San Francisco and occasionally New York during the summers as well. The idea is to take people and make them even more global. The school was set up and really founded by one of the most successful entrepreneurs of Europe, Mr. Bertil Halt, hence the name. He founded Education First for also education company, but we are a non for profit foundation. So the idea for us is to bring in people and we have people from about 150 nationalities across the world and take them even further in their idea of being global citizens. Now this is our web page and it says business school ready for anything and that is in a sense our promise also to the students. We should educate you to be ready for anything. We have a bachelor program, we have specialized master program, we have MBA, EMBA, and we also have a doctorate program as well. So we're a full fresh business school, about 4,000 students, school of significance accredited and all of that. But a lot of people still don't know us and I think it's because they've heard of Halt in a different way, namely the Halt Prize. And this is our attempt also to work for the benefit of the world broader than educating some of these people that are very global. This is a photo from the Halt Prize final ceremony where President Clinton is handing out the price of $1 million, which is given out by Mr. Halt to a winning team. This year we have 3,300,000 students competing in the Halt Prize competition. This is about social entrepreneurship. This is about making money while doing good. And this is an outstanding competition. This is the world's largest student competition. And as you can imagine, it has students from all over the world, from all kinds of discipline coming together to solve the problem. Such as, for instance, congestions in major cities in the developing world, solving energy problems, solving water problems, solar energy on the countryside in Africa, etc. So a lot of people know the Halt Prize, but it's actually part of the family of Halt International Business School.  We would have people, as I said, from all over the world meeting, talking, doing some exciting things. And of course we, like everybody else, and in particular us, you could say, who are catering to international students, were of course dramatically hit when the pandemic struck us all. So today we had to change, and the center figure here is a finger of somebody of a professor looking out over a partly empty classroom, but with also big screens behind there. And this is just to illustrate, of course, the idea of hybrid learning, that you have some people in the classroom, distance from each other, and other people, for instance, on Zoom, coming in from anywhere, but also being part of the education at the same time. The background is really, again, our student promise for anyone coming on board, namely, learn without limits. We call it that way, limitless learning. And that is the idea that you should be able to have education, even if you're from home or you're in the city where our campus is, or you're in the dorm, wherever, to come together and do this. And like other schools, we had to shift very quickly in March, and we shifted before we were allowed to do it because we knew where it was coming. But within a week, all our campuses were online, and we were immediately investing in very advanced cameras and microphones to develop a student experience that is high quality, which is also our promise to our students. So things changed indeed. Now, our mission to start with was to be the most global business school in the world. That was really the mission from Mr. Halt, because he felt there was all schools are regional or local, we need to be global. What has happened over the last decade is that that was sort of fulfilled more or less. So we shifted that a couple of years ago to become the most relevant business school, business school that was relevant for employers and students wanted to get employment. And behind here you'll see one of our London Magazine, which is the future of work. It's a couple of years ago. So we've been at this for quite some time and to think about how do we make our education more relevant so that students know what to do and they know some stuff that is appreciated by the job market and they could thrive based on that. So what we did was to ask in a sense of different kind of questions, because it's very easy if you ask your students we ask ourselves the first question of it, what did you do in college or what did you do at university or what did you do at business school. So what did you do and then possibly you could say, what did you learn, what did you know more of right now, what kind of knowledge you have now, but really what did you do. The question we wanted to ask was, what skills did you learn. So not only what knowledge did you have and believe me, we professors love to teach knowledge, but it's more tricky to answer the other question, what skills did you learn, and what skills are in demand from the market, which is a relevant question to ask if you want to be relevant. So what we did was to team up with one of these amazing big data companies in the US, this one called Burning Glass Technologies. And they analyzed job ads. So we used you can say current job ads as a manifestation or as an indicator of what skills students should be needing. And this is for instance a circle here is a the synthesis of about 100 million job ads asks for skills. And Burning Glass have put this together in a wonderful sort of building block approach here. So if you look at the center, it says that across the board of education, higher education, you need of course some human skills, you need to communicate creativity, critical thinking, collaboration, all of this, but some people call soft skills, I don't like that I prefer human skills, I think it's a much better time. Then you need to have some kind of business enablers. You need to be about communicate. This is very interesting digital design communicating data project management very strong business processes. And then you need also now more and more in the job ads, you can say for students looking for more management type of jobs or project management type of job. You also need much more almost like a separate digital skills. You need to be able to analyze managing develop visualized data you need to have developed some software you need to be able to understand a lot of software tools now, as well, even cybersecurity. And this is emerging as like skills you need to have no matter almost what education you have.  And sometimes even if you're in the liberal arts, you need to have this to. So this is a very strong signal for us. So we started to look at millions of job ads for, you can say for jobs that our students typically would like to have when they graduated. And we started to work through an elaborate scheme and this is another one, not only what skills do you want to have, but also what levels do you have and this is taken from the Lumina Foundation, not a big non for profit in the US that has set itself out to understand. Let's talk about levels of skills.  But then it's like within knowledge, you know, something but also your skills, you have specialized skills, you have certainly interpersonal skills, you have a whole range of skills that we cannot see on this board here. But it's just to give an idea of how we started to think about curricula to be even more relevant. So we started to sketch down what about our BBA, what about our master program, what about our MBA program. What should be the score core skills for these people. What should be some of the domain skills or specialized skill. And we started to sketch this. And what we found out by doing this was to say that people who want to hire somebody with an MBA, certainly expect them to understand for instance what business strategy is all about and also have an idea of what macro perhaps and macroeconomic or microeconomics and all that. But that's what you need later on, not really when you're a young graduate from business school, why do we teach them strategy, why do we teach them macroeconomic. Well, you can say from a liberal art perspective, yes, but it's really not about any skill nobody asked for. So that's why a lot of employers are saying great people, wonderful students, but they really they know some stuff, but they're not able to do a lot. So we need to teach them ourselves the skills. That's what we're doing now we changing that. And that is our mission to become you can say more relevant. So this is a school that is totally focused on this. And I'll be happy to go back to you and talk a little bit about what happened when COVID struck and how has that changed our thinking. Thanks, Johann. As a strategy professor I have to smile a little bit because, you know, somebody who's going to become a chief strategy officer at a company, it's going to be a long time. And so, so this notion of relevance I think is really important. It struck me that in Safina's story. The relevance of education is is almost about transformation and and and that, you know, particularly in a place like India, the opportunity through educating girls to address all of these world issues is massive and really important. And it also strikes me that, you know, sometimes when we get into the educational world and we get wrapped up into our own kind of institutional constructs, we are over rotating on knowledge at the higher level. I'll speak for myself. I won't put words in Johann's mouth. We're not we're kind of missing what's really relevant what's really important for for business and global business and society today. And so so in a way sometimes we get out of phase because we think too much about topic and not enough about task. And it struck me that in both contexts even Safina you mentioned particularly during the kind of the recovery aspect that that there's a life skills piece and there's a education can play a role in getting back on track. You teased us and you gave us two of the oars, but I'm wondering if you could reimagine with us a little bit. Where are things going to go from now. We're all very captured by the story and by the audacious goal that you had set and that you'd set up the five s's right so everything was there in terms of the schooling and the systemic and the sustainable etc. And yet, I think it's fair to say that the two p's are being exacerbated by COVID. So, so can you reimagine with us how how how the goal we all wish you will achieve can happen through reimagination. Tony, thank you. Thank you so much. Yes, I didn't mean to tease, but yeah, I know I covered the relief and and and the recover because the recover is really the present right now. But you're right. I think we are spending a lot of time at the team level and even with my board, just kind of reimagining what will it be like when when schools reopen or you know post pandemic. And, and there are a few things so we actually did an exercise to say you know what is COVID because COVID is also showing us it's actually teaching us it's a it's an incredible time because it's making a lot of things visible that were there in the world but we were not you know seeing them in the right way and I'll give you some examples so at least just in our experience what we're seeing is the opportunities as it were and I have to say a lot of these opportunities are very relevant for our experience because of the huge scale that we work at and it's showing us a way that we could scale much deeper quality, even when we get to like thousands and thousands of schools and villages with the increased use of technology for example you can make your training just in time. So, if I if I need to run a camp, I'm actually running very modular training bit you know because my, my community volunteers are essentially you know 12th pass just very passionate individuals but now I'm actually you know earlier I used to bring them in we would do a few days of training and then they would go back and by the time they had to implement a camp, a lot of it they would have forgotten. But now with WhatsApp with so many of these instruments I'm actually able to do very bite sized work saying, Listen, I'm going to help you tomorrow let's teach this, this is how we're going to do it and I can do it at scale because of technology because of the use of data so I think just being able to do just in time training. I think we're also getting very good at using all of this data and analytics in terms of precision targeting precision targeting of where the intervention needs to be and what intervention needs to go into which village. And even for our relief, because we had a lot of data we were able to pinpoint those villages that were really at highest vulnerability, whether it when it came to hunger. So I think there's this just in time piece around training there is this modularization, making everything bite sized. I feel that for our children, even though we're doing you know when we're doing Hindi, English and math. There is room to really teach you know what we call teaching at the right level which has shown again and again and again to be highly effective in terms of being able to build learning outcomes for first generation learners. And technology allows us to do that so actually even at very large scale and for very poor children. There is more of this sort of personalized learning and bring to that child what that child needs today, which is fantastic which is just so brilliant and aspirational for us, you know, that that that we're able to actually kind of do that and I think it's also shown us on the other side of it like I was giving you Kashi's example of there were people in the community that we were not really building, you know, as allies for what our children need and just like Kashi gave me a home so many people walk walk by my classroom today. There's a monk who walked by and he said you know give me a topic I'll teach. There's so many people there's a guy who runs a small stationary shop and he's like let me print all the material for you. And there's all this other stuff at the community level that we had never really tapped into. But that we're seeing that there's so much opportunity to take people along this journey and really tap their energy to bring it for for our children's future. And the other piece that I feel that they're two other pieces. One is I think we're also listening to each other more. You know the pandemic when we were doing relief work we actually had a lot more conversations with the government because we were jointly doing relief, we were jointly because it was just so unprecedented. And the last thing I think, you know, is that it's also making assessments kind of really we can do a lot more rapid assessments, and therefore do sort of immediate digital remediation for that child so we can also move away from this kind of high stakes end of the kind of assessment for the child, but really make it so I think these are some of the brilliant brilliant brilliant opportunities that we're seeing that I think will allow us to get to deeper scale sort of depth and breath it will allow us to do for the future of our children. But, but I don't think that they come without risks and I think they I think we have to also be aware of the serious risk that some of these approaches, as we reimagine will pose. So I'm going to bring it back to you and think do you want me to talk about the risks now or would you like me to, you know, hold that for a little bit. So maybe we'll hold on risk for a sec because you've kind of highlighted some of the key learnings and how we're reimagining and and and you're on where we kind of left your story was in seeking to become the most relevant business school. It became about skills and doing maybe more than knowledge and knowing, if we will, which is what we think about the traditional higher institution so so could you could you round out that story. You know in a covert world obviously now we're in a hybrid I could very much resonate with the picture looking at a series of screens as opposed to a classroom. How is this playing out for you now when you're saying okay we're going to orient ourselves towards skills that matter. Now, how does that play out in the institution, you know, do you still have a strategy class, do we learn in more small bite size learning as Safina alluded to can we personalized learning more. You've highlighted different levels you highlighted eight different skill levels. How does this operationalize for you and how is covert perhaps accelerated some things and you've learned more but also will then get to the risks afterwards. How's it working out. I think first of all is working out very nicely if I may say so because we are pretty fast and we do what we like to do and we don't have to ask for permission a lot, but having said that everything I've talked about requires a lot of rethinking. And this is also Paul pre COVID it rethinking on what kind of content should we teach what kind of pedagogy should we use and what kind of assessments are meaningful. A little bit like some safines was working on some of these things so shifting from sort of a knowledge at the forefront to a skills at the forefront perspective actually changes everything in education. And now I haven't talked about online. It is just that shift. And you could say, and, even if we have hit been hit by the pandemic now this still holds up very nicely. And, but again, professors will have to work harder you can say to make this happen that's for sure. But let me just mention also that I just read this report from a good friend the CEO burning gas technology at Siegelman called good jobs in bad times. And it turns out if you look at the data now, and I just got this last night, look at the data. It's so obvious now that there's, you know, a lot of people want to have a bachelor degree, but there's very few openings, at least in you can say in the industrialized world, very few job openings, and those jobs that require less education do not really value experience. So it's a little bit tight for those two tracks. So we have to think differently. And then the skills perspective is accentuated. And I just talked to a friend before this, this event, saying that it seems like his daughter will have to study anything plus computer science something. You know, so there's the whole digital is just taken on a new dimension and its skill base. Then it's perhaps not surprising where you have a totally new phenomena, namely that Google is entering into the higher education market, Google career certificates, with you know, six months short, you know, bit size type of skills building, you have linked in doing all everybody's running into bite size skills education. So, so that's clearly one, one trend. Adding to this, there's another trend, which is about big corporations wanting to have their own higher education degree. This has formed a partnership with Ernst & Young, which is hundreds of thousands of employees, getting access to sort of a, what we call a tech MBA. It's a totally new thing. And it's sort of you can say a manifestation or an illustration of what will become stackable degrees, it will become a number of badges and certificates being stacked, checked for quality, and then eventually you can take a degree in a more traditional sense. And some of the things that happen, of course, that's online. So, there is a lot of things happening right now, but I'll stop there. Great. So, so the pattern here, we said we'd have two stories with patterns is that education really matters. It's changing its nature and its former changing right before our eyes, perhaps accelerated by COVID and I think when we think about a big disruption like COVID. There's there's kind of two types of change that happen there's the accelerated decelerative change so things happen faster and people do things more online digitally faster. You know, so we thought my mother now orders groceries online she would have never done that before and now she wonders why she never did it before because she had to get over the hump right. And there's other things that will slow down like travel is an issue at the moment right. And then there's paradigmatic so it's almost like while you're busy dealing with the accelerated change, the actual nature of education itself might be changing before our very eyes right. So there's clearly opportunities and you both highlighted it in in kind of this unbundling of the traditional curriculum. There's the modularization and the bite sizing. There's the community aspects of you know that you said is I don't need to kind of bring educators into a massive five day training in Mumbai. We can do a 15 minute prep, you know with a monk over zoom ahead of he or she, you know doing something five minutes later. And so there's this kind of in one way we're disaggregating things down into bite size in another. We're organizing it in context so if content was King context is the kingdom people need to know this now. So let's emphasize that and let's let's spin that out. So what I'm seeing is it's you know, I still joke about. Why do we have summer breaks well we have summer breaks because in the old days that's when people tended to the farm. Institutional legacy of that doesn't make sense anymore and Johanna can see on your side you're really pushing the same kind of concept with bite size with kind of badging. Learn as you go based on what you need to know and do and then suddenly your portfolio adds up to you know a recognition from an accredited institution and a place like Ernst and young seeing value in the fact that you see it that way. As opposed to no come to the ivory tower. We will put you through school and then when you're done, you can go off and work and so we're seeing this kind of atomization. So that all sounds fantastic. That's like great. Safina, what are the risks. What are you worried about so this all sounds very good and but are there are there are there things we should worry about around the corner that that you're seeing. Don't worry, I worry about a lot of things, especially because I work with really vulnerable children. And so I think there is a risk of making education to more to modular and to transactional and not holistic. And I think our children need holistic education I think if you had to even talk about our own children. We're going to school to really learn how to be a human being how to interact with others to have that socialization to have empathy to have values because that is what will really build a civilized society not necessarily just having the skills. And, and I worry because also like, I mean we did you know the world's first development impact bond, and we got some fantastic results, and we dug deeper and some areas we were seeing very high results compared to others. And, and we dug in and we dug in we said what is different about these villages and these classrooms versus others. And you won't believe this and this has happened to me in program after program after program. I just another another week, first time we did a pilot for secondary completion for girls you know who have been dropped out a lot of school we do camps for them so that they can actually pass the 10th grade it's kind of a remediation through residential And what we would find is that where the tutor was from the same village, you will get a higher pass rate. It's as simple as that you know, wherever it was a local resource it was hyper local the person was invested in your success in a in a human way right it's just before the exam they knock on the door and say come let me help you and you you actually saw much greater. And so I don't, I think too much modularization and too much transactional skill based stuff, you're going to lose a lot of things, and our children learn by modeling other people's behavior by having role models by you know. And it is incredibly incredibly important that education doesn't become just about skills and competencies, but at the root of it is values is equity is inclusion. It's, it's all of these things that will make them whole human beings is what I think right it will build internal emotional resilience to be able to deal with you know future pandemics and you know things that may come at that. And just making it about skills is actually going to take us our children away from that and it's going to take take them away from being able to to build that internal strength and how do we make sure that we continue to kind of. They also worry a lot about you know this increase did sort of digitization we already see it in our society is about polarization right everybody's realities are so kind of hyper to their sort of little echo chamber will be stackable degrees run by corporate. And also does you know is the job of education I think it's a fundamental question for me is the job of education building cannon fodder for the quarter. Or is it about building strong individuals who are going to be able to look at you know humanities problems that are coming up that are currently there and find human centric solutions to those problems. So that's that's I think really the kind of big risk and I also see, will it exacerbate the divide between the haves and the have nots we already seen this you know in the western world a lot of children have gone back to school at private schools at charter schools and the government schools they haven't. You know, I know that most of my children don't have access to devices. Is this is it going to further completely you know in a way that they'll never be able to bridge that kind of a divide. So those those are things that I really really worry about and I also really worry about that you know the universities of tomorrow are not going to be competing against each other and their own Ivy Lake. They're going to be competing against WhatsApp University and what is going to be the role of education in in helping our children to realize what is right from wrong what is true versus false I mean, all of us fall for that today right in terms of what we see on fake news and WhatsApp news and those are core pieces that I think we need to teach our children and build their resilience and build that inclusion and by inclusion I mean special needs kids. I mean girls I mean poor you know below poverty line children, first generation learners and we will have to reimagine keeping keeping all of them in mind. I was just reminded of Alvin Toffler, the futurist who he wrote a number of books future shock being one and in that he talked a little bit about, you know we used to think about education as the three or is reading, writing and arithmetic. Yeah, and he said well actually what it really is is rules regulation and role. It's a training device for you to figure out where you're going to fit in society and what your lot will be so. So, in a way, education kind of becomes the machinery, if you will, to kind of spit people out. And I know, Johann, this is right up your alley, because we've talked about this a lot before is on the one side. So we are all nothing without education. However, if all we educate is what people need to do right now, and we incentivize that through the bite size modularized etc etc. We miss the empathy human piece. And it seems almost in a world where we're AI organized and we can analyze a million jobs and we can spit out the skills and we can spin up some e learning and we can slap on some VR goggles and we can do all of that. We're accelerating even faster than the first time around. Do you have any thoughts on that? Well, I know you have thoughts on that so share your thoughts on that with us. Well, it will not be a lot different from what Safina said. When you say cannon fodder for the corporate. I come to think of the, the pink Floyd video of the wall, if you haven't seen you can watch it it has a good illustration of exactly that. But, but of course there is a, it's a really tricky balance to strike on the one hand. There is a demand for skilled and knowledgeable people who are also good and decent humans right that's we know what the role of education is. On the other hand, you can say there is also a demand for even more reflective, less stressed people who can take on some of the bigger, bigger questions, of course. And this is not a new problem. This is not a new balance we need to strike, you know, even. Yeah, this is I'm sure in Vedic readings as well, but in the, in the Greek reading of philosophy, you'll find this in Aristotelian ethics, you know, the whole idea that you need a good education is to become a or leaders will have to have good education and that means they should know about the natural world, you know, you can say the laws of nature episteme. They need to be coming and smart street smart. They need to have the skills to survive right that's a metis. And then but they also need to have sort of the capacity to go beyond their own egoism and make decisions and take actions that are good, not only for them, but for the community and world they are part of this is sort of an extreme situation. And of course we must not forget that one. And the purpose and that's why universities will organize the way they were before and a good education was a little bit of everything, a little bit of the natural sciences, social science, the humanities, and a lot of research and all that because that practice some of the moral judgment you have to take. And we, of course, every school and every university trying to retain that and keep that and escaping it. For instance, in our curricula we pay an extraordinary amount of attention to how do we kind of work that other part into with projects and kind of pedagogy and how do we do that. So the well we develop these people that are not just the first two but also have this, what's called practical wisdom part of it of the education as well. It's, it's very different. It requires very different pedagogy. And, but it's important to do with the girls in your school, Safina, and with the future business leader in leaders in my schools and in other schools as well. And of course it's it's tricky, but we have to do it. And I've written a lot of this and I take an active role in the idea that yes, stem stem technology, all of this stuff, but don't forget the humanities. I've written about this, you know, there's, you remember Javal Harari's book, Homo Deus, he talks not about not only dismantle the humanities or humanism, he brings about an idea about data is where everything is controlled by big tech farms. They know our feelings before we know it ourselves. What kind of world is that? Well, I wrote this piece about technology humanism. Algorithms know all the answers and make all decisions. Who is the leader them or who is the person them? Yeah, I couldn't agree more. I think that, you know, I feel we're running an even higher risk today than we might have in the past of losing, of losing our humanness to automaticity because it because the algorithms today as they are working are kind of about, you know, commanding commanding our attention to control our consumption kind of thing that's the algorithm the algorithm is really a commercial algorithm and that's understandable to control their business people. However, if that becomes, if that same algorithm is what drives education and the unit is a bite of skill. And we're just kind of little mice taking bites of skills without any acknowledgement of the fact that there's a maze. We are in trouble. And I feel we have, for Education 2.0, we have a remit to remind ourselves that we are the entity on the planet that has the capacity to have language to reflect on our past and to project to the future and to make that real. And the part of what we, what we as educational institutions, whether that's in the most rural village in India, or, you know, the most shining building in Shanghai, that we never lose sight of that. Because if we do, we've missed the point of what Education 2.0 is, and we will lead to more polarization and have and have nots for sure. So, so perhaps I could, I could, I could close this with a wish. And the wish is that maybe five years from now post pandemic. One of Safina's village girls ends up in one of Johann's programs. Wouldn't that be good. With that, I'd like to thank Safina Hussain and Johan Ruz for a stimulating discussion, both coming from different places. Lots of patterns of similarity in terms of how we can do leverage technology to kind of automate things, but let's not forget at the end of the day. It's all about the human being. Thank you all very much. Thank you, Tony. Thank you, Safina. Tony, thank you Johan.


Your host for Navigating the Journey. Navigating the Journey is dedicated to exploring the options and choices for end-of-life care and to assist people to talk about their wishes. It's time to transform our culture so we shift from not talking about dying to talking about it. It's time to share the way we want to live at the end of our lives and it's time to communicate about the kind of care we want and don't want for ourselves. Today is exactly what we're going to do. We're going to revisit with John Ratcliffe. John will talk about his wishes for the end of life. Ratcliffe is on a journey that most of us can only imagine. This is one of the most powerful journeys one can envision. Marcia, thank you very much. It's a pleasure to be here this morning. I am so happy to have you. For anybody that doesn't know, I can't imagine that anybody in Hawaii that doesn't know John. He has been here since when, 40 years now? Well yeah, I came here in 1975 to run the State Teachers Union and I did that for 13 years and following that ran for Congress in 1988. I lost, which was a very good thing for me. It really helped me a lot in life and then I settled in and started operating the University of Hawaii Professional Assembly. J. N. Musto and I pretty much ran that organization for 17 years and he for 30, you know, and then I retired from that and I've been a lobbyist for since around 1990 or so. So I do a lot of lobbying and I've been at the legislature now for your right 41 years. Yes. Have I known you that long? I guess it hasn't been like that. We've known each other a long time. We were doing civil rights stuff together back before when we were trying to get a Martin Luther King Day here. Yes. When it was very tough to get people to come out. It was. And we also did a lot of stuff for gay rights and stuff when it was not very popular. Are we always on that side? Well we're, yes, we are. Marcia and I are both card-carrying Democrats and liberals. So that's just the way that is. Yes. Well, but we want to talk about you today because you are venturing down a journey, a path that most of us have seen, have had family members, but we don't get to talk about it. Now the paper said that you actually had your chemo treatment while you were the guest at the legislative opening of the legislature. So how does that work? Well it is something I, it was hard to see it. I mean you could see it on me if you looked but I didn't make a big big deal of it. What happens is that when I have chemo it's three days of chemo, not just a minute. So I go down on a given day, in this case a Tuesday, and I put about five hours in when they infuse me with these chemicals. And then they take the infusion stuff off and they plug me into a machine that meters chemo into me every 90 seconds for two days. So that's what I was doing on the floor.  And then about today, after all that goes through, that was last week. Now by today I'm pretty good. I'm tired but I'm pretty good. You look great. I'm pretty good. It's a lot of chemo. I don't know how much more I'll be able to take but I'm right now it's working. But there's no there's there's with with with cancer. There's a reason that it's called the emperor of diseases because it has a thousand a million ways to transform itself to move itself around in your body and do things to you. So you have to be constantly watching for things.  It might be it might be anything. It could you could go, you know, have half blind and stuff. And various and sundry things happen to you when you have chemo because there are side effects and and they're not very they're not very pleasant. The question about life here and the thing that that we all should be thinking about is what's the quality of it? How long can you stand it?  Where was I going with that? I can't remember going with that because it's it gets me in a in a head but but you know I realized that that that that that happens and people don't talk about that the quality of life that's left to you at the end right are you gonna lay there in bed exhausted and in pain and suffering or not? Can you get better? How long can you stay better? That sort of thing.  I exercise as much as I can. I think people can see that I'm making an effort. I do not want to die but I'm dying.  I think we have to understand what the thing is and deal with it and I'm dealing with it. It's unfortunate in life that not a lot of people want to confront this I guess ugly fact. Yes. I am willing to do it and I've always been willing to be the guy if I have to to do it so well there you go. I'm a cancer survivor and I know that pit of your stomach when when the doctor says this is what it is and it's really a difficult mentally as well as physically mentally to deal with this is what's going on and so I'm really honored to have you to talk about it your willingness to talk about it and you are as always which is in your DNA to lobby for the ability to have medical aid in dying. Yes. So let's talk about what is medical aid in dying. Right. What it is is a legal prescription that will allow a patient to personally take that medicine not being given to it but have to take it themselves. The doctor that does it you do it if you feel you need it when you feel you need it with your family around you and so forth. That's what that's about so that the doctor doesn't go to jail for doing that. Okay. What do you mean go to jail. Well right now it's not legal for doctors to prescribe medicine which will end a person's life. It's just not legal in the state of of Hawaii. It's legal in six other states not legal here. It's being it's in approximately 20 more legislatures this year as an addition to our own. So that's almost half the states in the union are involved in this and it's it's something which is moving nationwide because as in some other issues that have occurred socially this is one in which the minds of America have changed over the years. For example we've done a poll here in Hawaii just recently which indicated that 80% of the people of Hawaii would like to have this. 20% have problems with it. Only about 12% of people in Hawaii are adamantly opposed to having this option.  How is it okay for the doctor to prescribe morphine give her as much as she needs. How is it that they can do terminally sedation and that's okay. But to write a prescription for a person to take it themselves is not okay. I think we have a situation in which medicine has become better over the years to such a degree that we can be kept alive indefinitely for a very very long time anyway with nothing else going on than artificial stuff keeping you going that we can do. But we still have a prejudice against allowing people to control their own lives at the end. That is just a prejudice that is in the medical field. I understand it. It comes with the Hippocratic Oath, do no harm. But you know a little common sense would be useful with the do no harm part. And I think doctors have it most of the doctors that I talked to support this option. None of them that I know of except for Chuck and a few others are willing to come out and talk about it. Chuck is your doctor? Yes. He's the other guy on the suit with me.  Yeah we're also suing in court to determine what the law is. We have had two attorneys general in the state of Hawaii the last one David Louie and the current one Doug Chen who have indicated that this current status of the law does not allow doctors to proceed with with providing that medication and be assured that they were not going to be prosecuted. So we are going to the courts to say is that the way you see the law the attorney general opines this you be the judge so you say. So but I saw Mr. Louie say well he did backtrack and he said well if there are enough safeguards then he felt it would be okay. Sure and there are plenty of safeguards this is a very specific legislation. The legislation you have to be of sound mind you have to have less than six months to live that and have to be two doctors that have to say that. You've got to have you know two doctors willing to say that they're go ahead with this. There's all sorts of safeguards in it. It would be pretty much like the Oregon law which has worked now perfectly perfectly for 20 years. Good well we're going to take a break and then when we come back let's talk about the law what's in the law or what the safeguards are. Okay we'll be right back. Thank you. Hi I'm Tim Appichella I'm the host for Moving Hawaii Forward and the show is dedicated to transportation and traffic issues in Oahu. We are all frustrated by sitting in our cars in bumper to bumper traffic and this show is dedicated to talking to with folks that not only we can define the problem but we hopefully can come to the table with some solutions. So I invite you to join me every Tuesday at 12 noon and let's move Hawaii forward. Hi I'm Donna Blanchard I'm the host of Center Stage which is on Wednesdays at 2 o'clock here on ThinkTech. On Center Stage I talk with artists about not only what they do and how they do it but the meat of the conversation for me is why they do it why we go through this a lot of us are not making our livings doing this and a lot of us would do this with our last dying breath if we had to that choice and that's what I love to talk to people about. I hope you enjoy watching it and I hope you get inspired because there's an artist inside you too. Join us on Center Stage at 2 o'clock on Wednesdays. Bye. Aloha and we're back with a dear dear friend that I will preface his name by saying survivor. Thank you. John has been a survivor of polio. Yes TB polio virtually every other childhood disease known to man but survived most of it. The worst of those was the polio. I had polio when I was eight and was paralyzed for about three months fully recovered from that and that was wonderful. That was that was the most difficult childhood thing but it did help me become a terrific reader. So that's good. Yeah. So that's why I'm called him survivor and he's going to survive this also. Oh yeah. I mean now in terms of what you mean by survival is my body going to survive this. No. What's going to happen is that my body is already gone. I mean I was given six months to live two years almost three years ago. I've been working very hard on staying alive but trend lines don't go that way. The question is in people seriously say this to me. Well what about a miracle. Yeah I'm I'm happy. I'm open for a miracle. I'm I'm up for that. I would like a miracle. Well let's have a miracle. Okay. It happens that'd be great. But in the meantime in the meantime I think I've got to take action to because I know it's coming. Well we all we all do. I've been there. Yeah. I mean I've been there. We all and there isn't an end to it. We all is one of these days it's going to be the end. So you know folks and it's not that everybody dies and that's not the important thing. The important thing is what did you do when you were alive. Did you do the best you could when you were alive for the most people that you could you know. Were you helpful. Were you a good neighbor. That's the kind of thing that makes a difference. So let's talk about the bill. Sure. That is before the legislature and if us well and simply put what can we do. Thank you for asking that question because Marcia and I are both smiling at that because this is an organizing question. If you believe that you have a right to determine under certain circumstances your own method of death because of pain and suffering and things that cannot be otherwise prevented if you believe in that then you got to organize and you got to get down to the legislature and you got to make a scene because they are going to do and nothing nothing unless there's some reaction from the people they don't care about the fact that 80 to 88% of people in Hawaii want it that Catholics and other Christians are now supported. It's troublesome to have to take up these tough social issues. So unless people say take it up they're not going to take it up. They're going to fool around. So I urge every single person out there watching this if you know a legislator call a legislator call a legislator talk to a legislator every single one of them you know find out how they stand on this and if they're against it move them toward it if they're for it thank them and get their vote. Just to let you know that when you know this only in Hawaii or all of the legislators all the city council people all of the ohaha trustees their phone numbers are listed their doors are not locked go call be there if you feel this is something that you can benefit now you know we that it's the he doesn't want to go but it's the cancer that's that's taking him away from us and so we need to not only support John but hundreds of other people in the same condition.  Marcia I gotta tell you again folks that are watching this because I'm in the situation now people call me all the time and it's the damnedest thing people are calling me for things that happened in their families 25 years ago that they feel guilty about today that dick I people have called me that are crying themselves to sleep at night now what they did or didn't do didn't do 25 years ago and still with them you know that's not right no I mean that's not fair for people and it's just time folks you and you know I I say I say to the people ask ask your own moms and dads out there how they feel about it and talk to them the title of the bill is relating to aid in dying and it's a HB house bill number 201 right there is a Senate bill there will be Senate bill because a companion bill coming out of the Senate I can't remember the number off hand but it's should it's out now I think it's a lot today's the last day for introduction I think it's out today yes a senator in oh yeah senator noise got Lorraine annoying Lorraine's got a house or Senate bill five something but I'm not sure and yeah so but we do need your support we do need you to call to right to visit do whatever you need to do now there's also this is easy we need this this is not just really not about me okay I'm over with in that sense this is about other people the reason I decided to do it because I knew I knew that other people needed to have this done and as I sit with chemo patients all the time you know it's it's rough just getting up and walking around for most chemo patients so they can't do this and then they weren't gonna do it anyway I mean wasn't their thing it's you know I'm the kind of guy that stands on the street corner and says the people look at this I did it when yeah the civil rights movement I did it for the Vietnam War I've done it for teachers I've done it for university professors I've done it for all my clients be fair you know and that's what this is about well me trying to help others get a fair shot I think that just seeing you willing to talk about it willing to be vulnerable willing to put yourself out there so that the rest of us can say yeah here's somebody that's really knows what they're talking about it's not somebody that says well if right no this is real your your listeners might be interested your watchers might be interested to know that I also spent 10 years on the employee union health fund trust board some of that time is the chair of the of that that's the largest public sector health trust in the state of Hawaii and so I know a good deal about how health insurance works and and and what it's about this is extremely costly for the state as well I thank God that I have Medicare and and I'm able to you know to get through this because I'm also have insurance if I didn't have insurance this wouldn't be an issue because it's costing to keeping me alive is costing thousands of dollars a week yes nationwide statistics say that Medicare spends more on people at the end of their lives and all of their lives and it's estimated that one day in the hospital with what you're doing is a $10,000 a day oh yeah and I've been in lots of days yes so I've been in lots of days so I've yeah now now let's let's separate this we don't want you to think that oh it's costing so much money so we're going to get rid of grandma no no no no let's do not confuse the issues go back and look at the legislation very clear yeah so this isn't something that somebody does to somebody yeah so let's let's let's clean that up don't don't think for a moment that you often hear that I know yeah well we couldn't do that you know because yeah so no trust my own siblings but seriously grandma's estate is gone by the time you get through this the medical cost we're not talking about grandma so we're not so we're not doing that okay so don't go there don't even think about that this is your choice that you get to do for yourself and nobody else gets to make that choice nobody else gets to make that decision so right don't let anybody scare you and say oh we're gonna do this no this is your choice and it is about your choice it is about each one of us we get to choose who we're gonna marry we get to choose who we go to school with when we go this place when we go on vacation we get to choose so we should be allowed to choose when the illness has taken the quality of life away from you when there is no choice when there's nothing else that medical can do for you you need to be able to make that choice so without this without this choice my end my choice is is going to be what the what what I'm left with which is starvation well don't do it yet we need you for a while so listen please self-starter thank you so much for spending this time with me and we look forward to seeing you again next Wednesday at the same time and same place hello should join her inviting you to join us as we navigate the journey the journey to the end of life the journey of looking at our possibilities of choices and options and this is a conversation we want you to join us in this conversation as we visit with people of different traditions different religions and different cultures and see what they do toward the end of life it is a wonderful time to enjoy to talk about things that we don't usually talk about and that we should talk about before the intensive care as well as the elephant in the room the elephant in the room is healthcare and we really need to look at that as we approach the end of life so join us as we navigate the journey aloha


Stick together no matter what happens. They're gonna make plays, you know what I'm saying? But at any day, stick together throughout every day, we're gonna make plays. 17 different defensive backs have appeared in a game this season for the Tennessee Titans. That's 17. For secondary coach Anthony Midget and safety's coach Scott Booker, that has meant some serious mixing and matching of personnel. Not only have injuries factored into it, but so do specific schemes and specific skill sets that fit those schemes. Kevin Byrd has been the obvious constant as he had stellar play throughout the season. The other constant will surprise you. It's rookie Nickelback Elijah Mulden. Mulden has factored into both run defense and pass defense. He sure has impressed Byrd with his work.  You have to do a lot of communication. You have to be able to play linebacker sometimes and also cover like a DB. He's done a great job. But another thing that I think is even better that he's just physical.  Buster Screen has been a key addition to the secondary since arriving just over a month ago. But the cornerback who has made the most place this season for the Titans is Christian Folton. In spite of missing four games in October and November, the second year man from LSU has made locking up receivers what his season has been all about. Number one, just last year with the injury that he had.   I think this year having a full off season, he's having a really great year. And I expect him to keep rising up because I mean, I think he's a rising star on this league. Byrd also loves to discuss his running mate at safety, Amani Hooker. Hooker was out of the lineup with injury for the majority of the first half of the season. But as he has gotten back into a groove in recent weeks, Hooker is showing up more and more. Marappolo's gonna throw it. Fires down the middle of the pass. It's in, there it is! Hooker's range and closing speed are two of his best assets and they're becoming more and more evident as we head down the stretch. One thing that's really underrated, obviously he's a great athlete, but he's a really smart player. I think he'll have a super long career in this league because just staying in terms with that he has, great confidence. I'm just happy to see him out here having success because I remember he was drafted as a rookie and he was just playing in little small packages and stuff like that. Now he's taking the full year of being a starter. And then I'll talk to him about, you know, it's different when you're only playing 300, 400 snaps a year, now you're probably gonna play a thousand snaps. Love playing with the money, love playing with it. Another guy that Kevin Byrd loves playing with is 33-year-old Jackrabbit Jenkins. Until an injury at New England, Jenkins had been a rock for the Titans over the season's first three months. Byrd says that Jackrabbit is more than a veteran cornerback. Jenkins also helps his team by bringing a little bit of levity.  He's always making jokes in the meeting rooms, just been a joy to be around. The Titans have spent the majority of the season without a guy that they hoped would be a big contributor by now, first round draft pick, Caleb Farley. Being a savvy vet, Byrd predicts a big jump for Farley in year two, much like the jump Christian Fulton made from last season to now. The intangibles that he has, I mean, the speed, the size, he has everything that you would want out of a corner. He's fast. I think coming off the injury and stuff like that, he's gonna have a really long off season I'm gonna make sure I'm gonna be talking to him about just understanding to attack in that process, the rehab attack, it just as much as you did when you was coming off of the combine or whatever. You had to make sure that your body and your mind is right because next year I really feel like in the second year, he can really take a huge step and be the guy that they seen when they draft in first round.


How's it going everybody? Dottonoi here back with something completely new to the channel, but maybe not entirely new to some of you. That's right, if you didn't already know today on the channel we are going to be playing a 13 year old Dragon Ball game and my original Dragon Ball Fighters, Dragon Ball Z Burst Limit. By original Fighters, I mean that I was simply addicted to this game. I would spend hours playing online almost equivalent to what I spend playing Fighters now. And that's the reason I'm so excited because today I'm going to be playing this game for the first time in years going against my friend Nano here in a 1v1 battle years in the making. So if you end up enjoying the video and are hyped to see some Burst Limit, let me know by hitting the like button down below or just in the comments and maybe we can play some other old Dragon Ball games or even this game again at some point in the future. But with that all the way, let's go ahead and hop straight into the games. All right, so you already know we have to get things started off with Krillin. What move do I use? Scatter? Man, look at you. Oh, you're not. You know I got to use Super Destructo Disc. You know I got to treat myself. And then for the teammate, yes, yes, and yes, I'll take all of these. I have so many options. Look at my options, though. Oh, 17. Ah, what? Y'all. Why is this the intro, Nano? Ah. I got my chest. My chest. It'll please. Why? Preview of what's to come. Great intro, by the way. Not biased at all. Totally not biased. Look at me, though. I didn't even feel it. Come here. Where are you running? This is a classic Dragon Ball fighting game. Hang on. What does my back do? Ah. Okay. Oh, that back step was sick. Hang on. Which one would you go with? I actually was not paying attention, which I guess I'm going to find out firsthand, yeah, in my face. Yeah, yeah. You'll find out which ultimate it is. Let's see what this is. Mercy, mercy. No. What? No. Krillin wants so aggressive. Why? Yo. Did you just, you destroyed everything. You know what? This is for the earth. This is for my friends. Did you see how much damage that did? I know. That was it. You just got laid out. Yo. I don't know if you noticed, but you destroyed the earth. Yeah. We didn't get to enjoy the plains area for very long, did we? I'm sorry. We did the, hey, it's fine, you know. What are you going to... 18? No. 18. Come on. Why? Y'all. All right. All right. Sorry. Now somebody get serious. I'm sorry.  Think about this. Think about this. You look pretty serious. You better do something. You're just going to block. Solar flare. No way. Thank you. Tien, help me out. Tien. Auto with the cheats again. I see. Okay. You know, I got a call on my former, not former, my fellow earthlings. My former. Wait, wait, wait, don't, don't. Come on. Let me get this. Let me get this. Come over here. I want to show you something. Why are you running up like that? The ultimate. Nothing. I wish that came back. For some reason they don't give that. I'm down on the ground. Whoa. Y'all. Please not again. No. What happens when you just throw the earth multiple times? I don't know. You're probably going to bring us into a different dimension. Wait, it actually does change again. What? You are destroying the earth. I got to stop you.  This is actually really dull. This is actually really dull. I did not realize. Yeah. Yeah. No, 18 has definitely been helping. Nice dodge. Nice dodge. I'll give it up. Let's go. Potential on least. Oh, wait, you do have your potential on least, by the way. I know. I am maxed out, by the way. Come back. Please come back. Please come back. I was just. Do or die.  What did I get? No, no, no, no. That's what you get, an ultimate finish. So I guess I pick die? That was only round one, by the way. I hope you don't think you're going to get away with that in round two or three. Because I'm about to make the comeback of my lifetime. Where you going? I just want to hit you. Oh, thank you, Gato. I... No! I couldn't get there. I wonder if you sent a destructive disk into that if it would stop it. You want to try? Yeah. All right, go ahead. This is the ultimate one. The stakes were definitely made agreeing to that. Let's do this. That is a really good move. Yeah, it's pretty good. 17 does not have that in Fighters. I forget 17 is even in Fighters, if I'm being honest with you. Hang on, wait, wait. So can you do potential unleash? Yes, I can. Yep, you can. Full power. Yo, your image changes up there at the top? Oh, yo. My lighting changed, too. I got a different. And I'm dead. I blocked most of it. Let's go! Oh, that's a lot of damage. What is that? I got destructed this now. No, no, no. Wait, you can destruct the disk by standard? What is this? Man, now I got a normal. I shouldn't have told you to do that. Why did I tell you to do that? My limits are broken now. Good luck hitting me ever. Look at the rage on that. Hold on, I'm going to... That wasn't very funny. Okay. Wow, that's as far as it looks like it is. Hang on. No! Hey, goodbye, Neto. No! Why did that not work? Come on. No! Oh, no. No! You're dead. You're literally dead. See at the ground, Neto. That was brutal. Wow. Did I get to keep this? Look at what you did to the earth, by the way. I just want to bring this up. This used to be a nice plane. Now we're just fighting somewhere in the sky. Whoa. All right, go to the ground. No! Ah! No! That's what we like. You're doing it again. I don't like to see. Now, what if this time for real, we're in the hyperbolic time chamber? What?  This is for the earth. Dude! Why does that do so? Oh, because your potential on the leash doesn't even more. That's actually insane that does that much. I can't compete with that. That's a part and a half of damage. I'm just taking all the damage I can get. I'm teleporting. I didn't teleport that? No. Not again. Not again, Dotto. It will happen again. I just want you to accept that. Solar! No. Solar! No! No!    No! Solar! You hit it close enough. I don't know how to dash over there. Solar player! What? You promised me. Oh, no, my potential. Oh, did you lose? Oh, you lost it. No more easy peasy destructo discs for you. Well, I've decided I want them back. Oh, no. Oh, you let go. Oh, but of course, you pressed the cheat button, did you? You know I had to. You know I had to treat myself. Wait, where are we? Where are we? What? This is not the hyperlock time chamber anymore. Oh, I can see the ramp. Not today? Not today? That should come up. All right. This time, easy block. That should be... All right.  Dude, how? Solar player! Why? Why? And goodbye! Goodbye! Goodbye! And that's how you get a comeback victory with Krillin. Oh, yeah. Send him back to Earth. Send him back to Earth. All the way from the space. This is the fruit of my training. Yeah, bro. I lifted a couple of five-pound weights. Look around that now. All right. If we're doing Goku vs. Vegeta, I have to go with Spear Bomb again. You know, I just have to, dude. And where's Gohana? Get Gohana out here. Don't look at my stuff. Are we going to lose again? I didn't. I actually still haven't.  This is where Super Saiyan 4 Vegeta comes out. What is with... These intros are so biased! It's literally Goku vs. Vegeta now. Yeah, also Kana, thank you. You won't be saying this is Kana when you catch this Spear Bomb. Okay. I have a special button. I don't know what I'm with. Wait. I just figured out how to do that. How did I do that? You want to do the thing? Yeah, yeah, go ahead. Go ahead. I'm not letting go of it! No! No! No! That was so cheating. No! I was born to smash buttons! What is this? I don't even need to dodge this, Nanou! Kaioken! Oh yeah? I raised you one. That's unfair, that's unfair, that's unfair! Come here. That's right. No, not today.  Wait, why did that do so much damage to me? Why am I so much lower than you? I don't like this. Oh, that was pretty much next to Kaioken. Yeah, look who I got. You got Yaja!  Yaja, please! Hurry! People in the earth, I'm sorry! What? Welcome to Big Bangs. No! Leave him alone! Let's go, Gohan! Sit down, Gohan! No one has. No one has? Get down there, get down there! Get back down to the ground. Wait, you're going to stop this? You're not? No, it caught me. Okay, that did a little bit of damage, Dotto. I'm sorry. No need to apologize. You're going to be dying pretty soon here. Well, these people in the earth. We're looking for somebody? You're looking for me? Hang on. Oh! Let's go! Bro!  I just hit this bed so hard! Let's go! No way! No way, Yaja! You just took away so much damage from me! Let's go! No, I'm winning this game then. I'm sorry, but you are not winning this. No way! What a dodge! Please! I'm upset and I'm almost dead. I have to win this. Dotto, how do you say? I have to win this? Let's go!  It's a combo! You know, I see it. Do I try something? What a dodge! That hurts, though. That was actually somewhat of a combo into the Big Bang. I didn't mean to do that one, but I'll take it. Oh, you're finally... Yeah, I'm joining you. I'm joining you in the Super Saiyan Club. I've decided we should be equally matched. Don't run to me! I've got a little something for you. I can't go that high. This is as far as I can transform. Are you saying you're at your limits? Yes, I've got my limit. But then again, let me go ahead and burst live, actually. The game is called Burst Limit. It's in the title. Oh, no! Move, Goku! I don't even need to dodge this, actually. You do, but you're cheating? Whoa! I don't need to dodge this. Hey, I don't think you hit me with that. What trash is that? It's like that little double-double. I'm not a fan. Yamcha! Yamcha, leave me alone, Yamcha! I don't need this from anybody right now, especially you. Oh, no. I'm running out of key. What? I'm literally bursting my limits right now. Oh, did you really just said that? What the? Why is it stuck on me? Did that just go behind you like still deal damage? It did like a... I hope not. I think I'm not looking good right now. I really want to hit you with that, but I can't. Dude, just don't. Did you say just don't? Yeah, just don't. Oh, no. I'm back down to base form. What is this? What? No. No. Stop. Let's go. Let's talk about this, bro. No, no, no. I can't take this. I can't take another one. I can't take another one. Don't dodge it. Please just die. No, no, no. Aw. No way. Yes. Look at it. Vegeta's reached his limit. Let's go. You're not a Super Saiyan. He better not say he's a Super Saiyan. No. No, you're not. You're literally not. Dude, I wish this would transform me into Super Saiyan. How dope would that be? It wouldn't be very cool. Come on. Yes. Welcome to Byworld. I'm in the middle of trying to make a comeback. I'm in the middle of trying to make a comeback. I know what you're going to do. Just do it. Just do it already. Oh, no. You're going to try to move it to the ultimate. Just don't. Wow, that hurt. Go. The game's not over yet. Oh, my goodness. I was sweating.  I need to rely on the people of the earth. You're trying to use Spirit Bomb on me? Yes. I've been needing Spirit Bomb this whole time. Wait, so what is your ultimate? Or do you not have one? I don't have one. Oh, no. I gave it all up to seek power in the Super Saiyan form. The docks. Oh, I got to stop talking. Yeah. What is that? This is a high-level burst on my gameplay here. Thank you.  Get off me. Did we just grapple each other at the same time? Yeah, I think I tucked it. Oh, the music is hitting right now, too. The OST is sweeping me away. Are you transforming? Really? How childish. Oh, no. You're back to base form. I don't even need to dodge this. Let's go. This is not good. Please just be... I'm okay. Dodge it. Hey. Help me, Gohan. Help me. I hope you realize you're dead now. You're dead. I'm in my most powerful form. And the people here can finally hear me again. Let's go. Yo, just killed all that. We lost our connection before, but now we're back. Let's go. I'm ready.  The damage is insane. All right. I'm okay taking 117 from that. I just... I gotta get there. I gotta get to you. No. Let's go. That'll stay away from me. I don't want to. No. People of the age don't block this. No, don't. The people of the age... All right. That's fine. I can block that. Let's go. You're so fast. You're so fast. Just die. I'm not lying. I'm really concentrating right now. That's fine. We were just flashing it on. What? Yeah. Hang on. He's going to get there first. I'm just through baby one. No. Yes. No. What? The baby spirit bomb. I didn't get the charge chip. Oh, no. Yamcha, please. Yamcha will be the end of you, bro. Okay. Maybe he won't. Maybe he won't. Stop that. We're clashing again. Oh, no. Oh, no. Why is Vegeta so upset? He's literally a Super Saiyan. He could calm down. He doesn't need to be this angry. He doesn't want to lose. Just like me. I don't want to lose either. I don't want to lose either. Oh, no. You knocked me back in my weakest. No. No. This is a need.  All right. Well, that's where we're ending it. I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. I'm not praying. That's where we're ending it. Hopefully you guys enjoyed this. If you want to see it again, let me know down below the comment or by hitting the like button.

ACL injuries can occur in numerous ways. While it isn't possible to predict when they happen, certain anatomical features are known to put some people at higher risk than others. But are the thresholds for these so-called bony risk factors too high? An analysis of healthy individuals reported in the American Journal of Sports Medicine suggests they might be. Researchers analyzed three-dimensional CT scans for 382 healthy white and Asian participants. Among the bony risk factors they assessed were interconjular notch width, notch width index, lateral femoral condylar index, medial posterior platotibial angle, and lateral posterior platotibial angle. According to published thresholds for these factors, 15 to 62% of people in this healthy population were at risk of sustaining an ACL injury, and fewer than 15% had no bony risk factor. These rates raised the question of the specificity and sensitivity of current anatomical thresholds in identifying high-risk patients. Further analysis revealed differences based on sex and ethnicity. The interconjular notch width was wider in men, and compared with white participants, Asian participants had a narrower interconjular notch width, higher lateral femoral condylar index, and lower medial posterior platotibial angle. Understanding how bony risk factors vary based on sex and ethnicity and across different populations could yield better predictions of which patients are truly at risk of sustaining ACL injuries and experiencing ACL reconstruction failures.
