Acerca de Matters and Meaning

What is your worldview?  How does that worldview shape and form your understanding of meaning?  In this podcast we discuss various matters of interest and value.  But in the end, we want to know the deeper meaning of these matters and how they apply to the world around us, and to ourselves.  Join me as I search out deeper meaning and understanding into the matters at hand.

Navigating AI In Higher Education - A Students Perspective

As an online MBA student I'm navigating the higher education landscape with AI in play. With it comes opportunities, challenges, and decision points for students in utilizing AI, and the importance of critical thinking and balance could not be more paramount. Also, the challenge faced by professors and faculty in adapting to the realities of AI and safeguarding the value of "degrees" is nothing short of monumental. AI is a civilization altering technology and the common person, like myself, will have to wait and see what happens. In the face of such significant and uncertain change, what about one's worldview steadies them? What about your worldview steadies you?
