The changing face of education
Due to the rapid and ever evolving advancements of technology, learning spaces of the 21st century are networks of diverse connections. Learners are no longer being directed along a lineal path for the purposes of finding a career. Because, quite simply, as Ken Robinson (Ted, 2006) points out , the careers of students today have yet to be created. The challenges facing young people as they become adults are more complex and demanding than ever before (Bentley, 2012) Therefore, in order to equip our students to be future global citizens, lets become educational innovators, lets rethink and adapt our pedagogical strategies, make changes to our classroom and school spaces, adopt forgotten, and explore new, cultural approaches, whilst immersing ourselves in e-space connections. We will address the challenges and strengths of: learning in the e-space; personal learning journeys and the influences of the liminal space; learning experiences both in and beyond the classroom; and cooperative and collaborative cultural approaches.
