Our
current tertiary educational paradigm has long become outdated.
Nowadays, an educational paradigm that is more aligned with
the current ways of learning is needed, some refer to it
as the new educational paradigm for the Information Age.
To achieve this, an understanding of current and future
educational paradigms and the need for paradigm shifts are
required.
Paradigm shifts are as unpredictable as they are inevitable.
No one can be sure what the future holds, but it is most
likely that education in the Information Age will be dramatically
different.
Table below shows the major differences between our current
educational paradigms with the one which is aligned with
the Information Age.
