Description
It's not just K-12 and college students moving to online education these days. edX and other learning platforms have seen huge increases in enrollment over the past two months as millions of adults seek to learn new skills in a battered economy. As edX CEO Anant Agarwal explains to host Shiv Gaglani, part of edX's role now is teaching people how to learn, and teachers how to teach, using a format that will remain a key source of education long after the COVID-19 crisis has ended.

Getting More Health Out of Healthcare - Dr. Joshua Sharfstein, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health: If the U.S. healthcare system was a patient right now, you'd probably put it in the ICU. In the view of Dr. Joshua Sharfstein, Vice Dean at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health and host of the "Public Health On Call" podcast, the COVID crisis has exposed weaknesses in the way we finance healthcare and it could either derail existing efforts to reform the system, or it might spur change. In a wide-ranging discussion with host Shiv Gaglani, this influential national voice provides insight on contact tracing, the need for a public health service corps and the impact COVID-19 is having on the opioid epidemic. by Raise the Line
