New demands on learning coupled with new concerns about a changing world have resulted in a new focus on what constitutes a durable learning experience in a liberal arts setting. While the noise of a crisis in the liberal arts can be distracting at times, what we learn is that different types of schools continue to answer the question of why the liberal arts remain an effective educational option. This essay argues that they are only beginning to address what is durable and adaptable about the liberal arts in the face of automation. While many have endorsed the LEAP (Liberal Education and America's Promise) framework developed by the American Association of Colleges & Universities, which called for the liberal arts to be in the nation's service, the original framework did not fully anticipate the rate, scale, and far-reaching impact of automation. What is needed is a liberal arts 2.0, one that prepares learners to become robot-proof in a world in which many will find themselves with robotic helpers.

迈向通识文艺2.0协议

对学习的新要求以及对变化中的世界的新担忧导致人们对文科环境中持久学习体验的构成有了新的关注。虽然文科危机的声音有时可能会分散人们的注意力，但我们了解到，不同类型的学校仍在回答为什么文科仍然是有效的教育选择的问题。本文认为，他们只是在面对自动化的情况下才开始解决关于文科的持久性和适应性。尽管许多人认可由美国高等学校协会开发的LEAP（自由教育和美国的承诺）框架，该框架呼吁将文科服务纳入美国的服务范围，但原始框架并未完全预期其速度，规模，和自动化的深远影响。所需要的是一门文科2.0，它可以使学习者在世界上看到很多机器人助手的情况下，成为机器人的证明。
