The concept of remediation, as outlined by Jay David Bolter and Richard Grusin, offers a lens through which 21st-century partnerships might be analyzed and reinvented. Accordingly, this chapter argues that looking to the future, community-university partnerships will gain momentum as centralizing educational venues, while emerging technologies will offer mediated spaces where academic, professional, and nonprofit institutions merge to provide learning opportunities that engage both sides. This chapter situates the multiliteracy space—in this case the Noel Studio for Academic Creativity at Eastern Kentucky University—as a model for community-university partnerships that employ emerging technologies to develop communication skills.

Digital transformation and emerging technologies have disrupted the workplace, from the skills employees need in the workplace to the entrepreneurial mindset they require in this dynamic and globalized economic system. While the workers of today are navigating this transition, students require skills to lead the working landscape of the future. These skills, known as 21st century skills which encompass enterprising skills (i.e., creativity, innovation, teamwork), are generic skills that are transferable across different jobs and are a powerful predictor of long-term job success and will be increasingly important into the future. The Australian Government calls for enhanced enterprise skills due to their ubiquitous application and benefit across life and work domains. To answer this call, this chapter bridges the knowledge and resource gap that Australian STEAM academics have by explaining the development of a specially designed platform to teach the 21st century skills and enterprise skills.

The future is being shaped by current and emerging technologies that are drastically changing the way in which people interact. Such changes are as a result of development in the field of science and technology. Consequently, cyberspace counselling is at the forefront of the paradigm changes that are shaping the future of face-to-face counselling. This paper reflects on the potential benefits of cyberspace counselling in the 21st century, its implication, challenges and prospects for counsellors and the counsellees in Nigeria. Building upon this, the paper also concludes why these technologies can change theface-to-face traditional counselling to cyberspace counselling thereby making both counsellors and clients in the realm of counselling context.
