A hypothesis?

Learning always has been and always will be a personalised experienceIt is the organisation of education that has been impersonalThe impediment has been economic scaleabilityTechnology is making personalisation achievable at scale

The art and craft of the teacher has been to balance the needs of the learner and the system

IT and Globalisation

Minimum skill set for a living wage risingDemand for low-skilled workers fallingRate of change of skill needs increasingState budgets under pressure

Increased demands for creativity, innovation, design and personal/inter-personal skills
