Peter Twinning Reviews “Learning Futures”
Peter Twinning Reviews “Learning Futures”
From agent4change.net:
Within this discourse the role of schools is portrayed as being to prepare young people for this rapidly changing ‘knowledge age’ by developing their ‘21st century skills’, including communication, collaboration, learning to learn, and high levels of IT competence.
In ‘Learning Futures’ Keri Facer describes this discourse as ‘the myth of the future’, which she argues very persuasively is fundamentally flawed.
Sounds an interesting read. Really enjoyed watching Keri Facer speak at the LWF11 Conference back in January.
