The rise of TikTokers teaching financial literacy shows how grossly under taught it is by traditional educational avenues
other under taught areas I've seen TikTokers address
-photo/video editing
-public speaking
-psychology of sales
-real estate basics
-mediation
-proper weight lifting techniques
whether or not these people are qualified to teach—and if young people should be listening to them—is a whole different question
the point is there is an undeniable trend of TikTok (and social media in general) filling educational gaps
The future of education will come from organizations like @MorningBrew
-more credible than TikTokers (but still personality driven)
-more approachable than traditional universities
-has distribution expertise
-agile enough to fill educational gaps wherever they may arise
okay this turned into an impromptu thread but one more thing
the winner of education 2.0 will be the org that can develop credible personalities
Harvard = credible
TikTok "gurus" = personalities
@KinseyGrant teaching you how to build a podcast = credible personality
