The following text is a collection of short pieces about education, change and technology that originally appeared on the author's blog and have been rearranged, improved, extended and polished here with the help of a dozen voluntary editors. (see "Special Thanks" for complete list of contributors)
This text features topics such as youth unemployment, technology and learning, politics and psychology of education and much much more...
from the disclaimer:
"While there is an over-arching narrative, the arrangement of the sections is deliberately non-linear because the only way to accurately describe a fragmented landscape is to adopt an approach that suits the territory."
