DID YOU KNOW?


So last century
By Cathy N. Davidson
28 April 2011

About 100 years ago, higher education
restructured to meet the needs of the
industrial age.

It has changed little since, even as the
internet has transformed life.

Another revolution is needed, says Cathy
Davidson, to modernise universities and
prepare graduates for a 21st-century
Cathy N. Davidson is the working environment . . . .

"The history of 20th-century higher
education has been the history of assessing
individual achievement, measuring,
certifying and quantifying outcomes and
outputs."

".... new sorting and attentional skills,
collaborative skills, judgement and logical
skills, synthesising and analytical abilities,
critical and creative skills, qualitative and
quantitative skills, all together, with few
lines between them.

These are sometimes called "21st-
century literacies", a range of new
interpersonal, synthesising, organising
and communication skills that
companies insist today's graduates lack."

New Straits Times,
Juen 13 2012

for the future.
Innovate for the

Excerpt
“This is something bigger
than MIT. …..we very much
hope that OpenCourseWare
will draw other universities to
do the same. …. we have a
world wide web of
knowledge that raises the
quality of learning – and
ultimately, the quality of life –
around the globe.” (para 17) Retrieved Feb 27, 2010 from http://web.mit.edu/newsoffice/2001/ocw.html
