Abstract
The fourth industrial revolution is meant to blur boundaries between the biological, physical, and digital worlds (Schwab, 2016). In this century, technology has become more and more integrated into our social interactions with other people and with nature. Recent medical and technological breakthroughs such as Neuralink and Braingate have given us a glimpse of how embedded technology within the human body and brain could change the trajectory of human civilisation. As technology is enhancing our outreach, capacities, and volume of interactions in Higher Education (HE), it is fair to say that it also separates the engagement between staff and students, lowering the attention span and motivation and, overall, impacting the student and staff experience.
