Description
The System Rebooted: Education Fit for the Digital Age by James A. Penny explores how education systems can be transformed to align with current trends in society. The author argues that learning, an essential skill, is often not allowed to flourish in many modern education systems. Rapid changes to technology are shaping the way young people share, collaborate and communicate, yet education systems continue to produce individuals who lack the skills needed by society. This book makes a case for how education systems need to reflect these changes and highlights how learning organisations can rationalise their expenditure on technology. By bringing topical issues to the forefront of discussion, this unique book is essential reading for school leaders, policy makers, and governors seeking to understand the need for radical change in education.
