This book takes a fresh look at the fundamental character of
education, its history, interaction with society, purpose, changing
focus over time and interactions with technology. It surveys the
role of research in increasing the body of knowledge leading to new
technologies that have helped serve the needs of humankind. In our
lifetime there have been profound changes to the world we live in;
the technologies used, the problems we struggle with, and the
education systems intended to prepare this and following
generations for the future. Many of the problems we face now are
more complex than in earlier times, requiring broadly based
approaches our traditional silo specialisations are ill-prepared to
deal with. They involve technologies whose range of positive and
negative effects are not well understood. Many of these problems
are global in nature and can no longer be treated just as local
issues. Our current approach to education does not adequately
prepare us to tackle these problems. New approaches to education
are needed to prepare us for the changes that are to come. The
future of our planet, our civilisation, our community and our
economy depend on it. This book proposes changes that will better
prepare us for this future.
