30 Under 30 Education 2017: Revolutionizing Learning Inside The Classroom, Post-College And Online

(Additional reporting by Justin Conklin)

Expect 2017 to be a time of dramatic and exciting changes in the world of education, thanks in part to the "edu-preneurs" on the 30 Under 30 list. This year -- and this crowd -- are poised to set the pace and define the next era of learning.

Ever since the digital revolution set its sights on the edu sector, it's a whole new landscape in terms of big data and analytics, alternative learning platforms such as social media and video, and bustling private -- and public -- revenue streams. The end result? Increased opportunities and new pathways to learning, especially for previously overlooked or undervalued students and teaching professionals in the areas of STEM and higher education.
