Challenges
Lots of Challenges
• EU focus entirely outside education
• Main goal – clear policy – national education – subsidiarity - problem
• No vision – to meet C21 needs
• No clear decision making • Disruption – reactive
• e-Leadership for change • curriculum –
qualifications – slow to change
• What’s in it for me? – is there a pedagogical added value
• Future, smart cities - learning needed – smart citizens
Challenge: Complexity
Linking use of services and tools to individual learners – specified by instructional strategies
