Today’s Rapidly Evolving Education Landscape: Challenges and Opportunities

For reasons beyond our control, the issues of IEEE Signal Processing Magazine arrive to you with delays this year. As you receive the current March issue, we are back from another edition of our flagship conference, the IEEE International Conference on Acoustic, Speech, and Signal Processing (ICASSP), which took place in Seoul, Korea, 14–19 April 2024. It was successful and vibrant, and, with 4,432 attendees and 2,826 accepted papers (out of 5,896 submitted), it was bigger than ever. At the risk of being labeled a grumpy Muppet, I will note that ICASSPs are now a tad too big for me, as I often found myself at a loss trying to choose among a seemingly endless number of attractive sessions and events at any given time. Of course, we still have our workshops, which are intimate and focused, and a number of them are even single tracks.
