Podcast Summary

Dr. Drumm McNaughton interviews Dr. Michael Horowitz, founding president of TCS Education System, about the system’s expansion into healthcare and its use of technology to support student success.

Podcast Highlights

• TCS has created its biggest project to date, the Kansas Health Science Center and its connected Kansas College of Osteopathic Medicine (KCOM). This effort is designed to prepare medical professionals to work in rural areas. The program will combine traditional medical training with technology, including telemedicine, in an innovative curriculum.
• TCS believes in radical cooperation. The system’s universities and colleges work together to create classes and programs.
• TCS plans to use AI in novel ways. For example, they will use this technology to analyze what the success factors are for learning and completing a program. AI also can help identify students who are facing other challenges, such as financial distress or issues with childcare, so TCS staff can help the student navigate these issues.
