Анотація

The goal of education is to prepare young people for the adult working world, but what kind of
world should they be prepared for? Technology and globalization are transforming education, and the
pace and scope of change makes predicting the future complex and uncertain. In fact many of the
occupations that today’s students will be working in have not been invented yet. However, there are
foundation skills and process skills needed for whatever scenario emerges. Educators therefore should
have a broad and long-term perspective about helping students succeed. All subject areas can contribute
to a set of competencies that enable young people adapt to rapidly changing career demands.
