Abstract

Being educated to compete in a global workplace means developing informed citizens capable of making informed choices and decisions. Education today involves preparing students for uncertain futures, a priority for educators, school administrators, policymakers, and stakeholders. The call for schools to focus on developing student's cooperative habits while also acquiring the ability to adapt and learn how to learn has been a central theme of this book and of educators for the last several decades. Learning how to learn is a basic tenet of Dewey's philosophy on education and needs to continue as a basic premise of education in the 21st century. This chapter will look to the current trends in education delivery, highlighting recent developments and noting present-day education delivery challenges that are still waiting to be resolved.
