Education in 2020 – The end of the classroom?

The coming decade will witness phenomenal change and disruption in the field of higher education. As academicians, while our focus has been intense on the quality and delivery aspects of education, I feel it is technology that will be the great disruptor of how we teach and measure the outcomes of that teaching. One clear area of evolution I see for schools will be a shift of focus from 'marks based' academic curriculum to 'life based' overall development. Institutions may talk a lot about it these days but do very little – however, this will change gradually but surely.

The present generation strongly believes that it is fair to be paid as per performance but also that there is no justification for non-performance.
