13. Global Demand
• Demand estimates vary:
• HE students tripled in 2025
• Quadrupled in 2030

every week

14. Global Demand
• Meaning:
• We can not teach like we did before
• Role of University changes
From: ‘Knowledge monopoly’,
To: Facilitating and accrediting institution
• We need to harness the power of ICT
• We need to harness the power of Open
