  • Resumen

  • Electric vehicles (EVs) and autonomous vehicles (AVs) are here to stay! While the benefits of transforming the transportation industry are undeniable, the true cost of making that transition is still unknown. For instance, what will happen to economies that rely on fossil fuels, and how will data-hungry AVs impact personal data privacy? Getting a full picture of what is required to make and sustain the transition will require a multi-disciplinary approach. Such an approach will help optimize investment to maximize the expected long-term benefits. This is exactly what the Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) is seeking to do. In this episode, Dora Smith interviews Elisabeth Gerber, Collegiate Professor of Public Policy and Innovator-in-residence at the University of Michigan and Founder of ViewPoint Educational Technologies. She’ll help us understand what the MOOC course entails. She’ll also share with us the benefits they have leaped from partnering with Siemens. In This Episode, You Will Learn: What Elisabeth's new course, MOOC, entails (02:11) How her expertise in social science helps her in the project (07:16) Why we need to transform electricity generating systems (09:41) Why data privacy is a big challenge in AV development (11:12) How a shift from fossil fuels will impact local economies (16:56) Connect with Elisabeth: LinkedIn Website ViewPoint Hosted on Acast.
