you are looking at the hewlett-packard enterprise agreement. larry kudlow, white house economic council director. this is bloomberg. ♪ alix: it is that time of year, when students prepare to head back to the classroom. this week, we are hitting the books and learning about different aspects of education and what can be done to improve it. yesterday, we explored preschool education. today, we are zeroing in on education technology, which is changing the way students learn and how teachers do their job. david: on the forefront of that is john fallon, ceo of pearson, the world's largest education company. welcome. give us a sense of the role of technology in education right now around the world, but particularly the u.s.? john: i thought your piece on the student debt crisis was important because that is at least in part a college completion crisis. americans over the age of 25 who have started college but have nothing to show for it in terms of an associates or bachelors degree. one of the things i think education technology can do is help more s
