The document discusses research on the future of learning and the educational process. A survey found that many employees experience information overload and a lack of knowledge sharing. The research also looked at implementing a new way of working and learning. For learning, a pilot program reduced required classroom hours and used social media and online tools. This led to reductions in travel and facility usage. The results were expected to significantly reduce the number of university buildings and increase online and blended course offerings. The future of education is discussed as moving away from traditional models.
