Outlook of community-based services and education up to
15 years from now
 Key considerations in anticipated changes
 Possible funding scenarios, if applicable
 The influences of diversity and the law on the outcome
Introduction

3. 
 Technological changes over globalization
 Changing Pedagogical concepts; The development and
implementation of innovative pedagogical concepts
 Learner-centered, flexible and personalized approaches to
learning; The integration of learning into life and work
 The education system of the future will undergo a
transition from a heavy emphasis on teaching to a heavy
emphasis on learning.
 In the future, teachers will transition from topic experts to
a role in which they act more as guides and coaches
Key Considerations in Anticipated
Changes in Education

4. 
 Changing the way society organizes community services
so that care is more accessible
 Altering the cultural view of aging to make sure all ages
are integrated into the fabric of community life.
 Without a sufficient and reliable community-based
workforce, fewer people who want to leave institutions
will have that choice, while others may have to leave
community settings for institutional living.
 Building a viable and affordable community-based
delivery system
Key Considerations in Anticipated
Changes in Community-Based Services

5. 
 Non-Profit Organizations; Donations
 Federal, State, and Local Government Funding
 Private Funding from outside organizations
 Other funding options from community-based services and
education will come from private contributors who realize
the importance and need for services and education to
improve the over-all well-being of adults.
 Grants; such as community development block grants
Possible Funding Scenarios

6. 
 Diversity is the central to our commitment to academic excellence.
We know that a diverse living and learning community improves the
educational experience for all.
 Work to affirm the dignity and worth of everyone in our community
and to ensure that all feel supported in their differences.
 A culturally diverse community has a wide range of traditions,
languages, beliefs, values, ideas, and practices
 The resulting cultural diversity expands choices, nurtures a variety of
skills, human values and worldviews and provides wisdom from the
past to inform the future. As groups of people worked and lived
together, they developed distinctive cultures. Together the cultures of
the world create a rich and varied tapestry.
Influences of Diversity

7. 
 Congress has enacted a number of laws/civil rights statutes
prohibiting discrimination in community-based services and
educational programs.
 These statutes are: Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964
(prohibiting race, color, and national origin discrimination);
Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972(prohibiting sex
discrimination); Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973(
prohibiting disability discrimination); Title II of the Americans
with Disabilities Act of 1990 (prohibiting disability
discrimination by public entities); and the Age Discrimination
act of 1975 (prohibiting age discrimination).
Influences of the Law

8. 
 The federal civil rights laws have helped bring about profound
changes in American education and improved the educational
opportunities of millions.
 Many barriers that once prevented minorities, women, individuals
with disabilities, and older persons from freely choosing educational
opportunities and careers they would like to pursue have been
eliminated.
 As we continue to work for the effective enforcement of the civil
rights laws, it is important that we also look at the impact of the laws
on students facing discrimination who attend our elementary and
secondary schools and colleges and universities.
Influences of the Law, cont’d

9. 
 The anticipated changes, funding scenarios, and influences
of diversity and the law are trends that are driving change
in the world of education and community-based services.
These trends will eventually define the size, scope, and
speed of the emerging new system along with the
characteristics needed for a up and coming futuristic
education system and community- based services.
