7 BILLION UNIVERSITIES

Over a week ago, I gave a TED talk about the role of simulation games in higher education and how they could disrupt the education system as we know it. Below, you’ll find the video, the slides I used and the full transcript of the text. Are you interested in helping me to make this game ready to enroll in a couple of years?
Just like in prison, education is an institute that will take people out of their normal life for a few years. A life-changing event that can make you feel insecure, isolated and frustrated. And upon graduation they feel a mismatch, sometimes even very small and lost.





The education system is failing on us.
- The top 10 of highly wanted jobs of today didn’t even exist 5 years ago.
- 75 million graduates are currently unemployed worldwide. And at the same time, employers complain that they can’t find the right people for the job…
- 58% of employers experience a staggering mismatch between the skills that they think are important and the skills that are taught in higher education.
