John Dewey’s Vision of Learning as Freedom

John Dewey’s Vision of Learning as Freedom | Rethinking Public Education | Scoop.it

The call for a more narrowly tailored education — especially for Americans with limited economic prospects — is not new. 

 

 Rather, higher education’s highest purpose is to give all citizens the opportunity to find “large and human significance” in their lives and work.

Future work skills - 2020 [pdf]

Mary Perfitt-Nelson's insight:

"This report analyzes key drivers that will reshape the landscape of work and identifies key work skills needed in the next 10 years. It does not consider what will be the jobs of 

the future.  

 

To be successful in the next decade, individuals will need to demonstrate foresight in navigating a rapidly shifting landscape 

of organizational forms and skill requirements. They will increasingly be called upon to continually reassess the skills they need,
and quickly put together the right resources to develop and update these. Workers in the future will need to be adaptable
lifelong learners"

 

Love the trajectory here and implications for teachers (and learners).  I see progress, in terms of people aligning what they do with what is needed.  We still have a long way to go.

My first reaction on reading the list of groups involved was negative. The University of Pheonix has a dog in this fight. They will want digital technologies to at the forefront. That is OK, but we need a balanced view of this emerging world and we need to question some of the views presented. We are not on the cusp of a relationship between humans and their digital tools. We have passed this cusp and each day we are in that emergent world. That kind of comment oversimplies a complex reality full of uncertainty.

Recherche très pertinente qui apporte un vent de fraîcheur.  On n'y parle pas des emplois du futur, mais plutôt des compétences ou habiletés requises

Interessant rapport waarbij 'Change' in organisaties en bij mensen een zeer nadrukkelijke rol speelt. De tekenenen zien we nu al bij organisaties ontstaan. Het onderzoek is welliswaar primair gericht op Amerika, maar door de verdere globalisering en internationalisering interessant voor een ieder die met mensen werkt of gaat werken!
