Should education be all about the needs of industry and the economy or is it something more fundamental?

A senior adviser to Scottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon and to the Finnish Government claimed yesterday (Thursday) that education ministers in England, Australia and the United States are continuing to invest in unsuccessful education systems, in spite of clear evidence that they are not working.
Education systems will need to be much more flexible, in order to cope with the demands of an age of increasing uncertainty. And teachers must be trained not only to teach, but also to redesign their institutions to keep up with the pace of change in society. These are just two of the recommendations set to be made by education and technology experts, taking part in OEB Global 2017, Europe’s largest conference on technology assisted learning and training.

Could students take charge of their own education? Could they control what, when, how and where they learn?
