Meadows proposes an approach to the education sector that starts from needs and proposes educational and business models, supported by new technologies. This book looks at the future of education from the angle of design and disruption. Starting with shocking statistics on costs, time and long debt repayment, it makes a clear case for disruption in education. He goes on to examine future skills in the age of AI, machine learning and robotics. In this new era, companies need a new kind of workforce, and workers need to equip themselves to survive and thrive. Drawing on the tools and techniques of disruption and design thinking, Meadows proposes new frameworks for education, business and technology – all with examples of educators (and learners) who are already doing it today. This book offers rigorous thinking and practical advice for education professionals and budding entrepreneurs, as well as homeschooling parents.
