Open and networked education: learning the future of learning

Abstract

The analysis about Education and current educational settings (or educative technological contexts) leads to the need for reflection and study on the state of school as a public space and on their role in relation to the promotion and development of skills of children and youth, either at European or international levels. To understand the future of education there are multiple lines of analysis, as well as several authors speculating about the school's future and the future of this young technological society. In this paper we intend to discuss the state of the art about the school of the future and reflect on possible connections, developed under a doctoral project in Portugal, reflecting about some of these central issues.
