Comenius meeting at South Zealand Business College 13-14 October 2005

“Every organized human activity - from the making of pots to the placing of a man on the moon - gives rise to two fundamental and opposing requirements: the division of labor into various tasks to be performed and the coordination of these tasks to accomplish the activity.

Comenius meeting at South Zealand Business College 13-14 October 2005

“Every organized human activity - from the making of pots to the placing of a man on the moon - gives rise to two fundamental and opposing requirements: the division of labor into various tasks to be performed and the coordination of these tasks to accomplish the activity. The structure of an organization can be defined simply as the sum total of the ways in which it divides its labor into distinct tasks and then achieves coordination among them.

Mintzberg "The Structuring of Organizations”

The ”normal” approach to education and curriculum based on the assumption that knowledge is department-alized into subjects.

Several attempts from 1970 and onwards to remedy this situation, quickly hit the bedrock of political differences.

Globalization forces subjects – individually as well as in relation to other subjects – to redefine themselves in order to produce new knowledge.

Comenius meeting at South Zealand Business College 13-14 October 2005

Subject 1

Subject 3Subject 2

Questions which must now be asked by teachers and students:

What is core knowledge in my subject?

What can my subject NOT contribute with to the production of knowledge?

What are the strengths and limitations of my subject?

Let us steal a little room here for a story. A certain French Nobleman always used to blow his nose with his fingers, something quite opposed to our customs. Defending his action (and he was famous for his repartee) he asked me why that filthy mucus should be so privileged that we should prepare fine linen to receive it, and then, going even further, should wrap it up and carry it carefully about on our persons; that practice ought to excite more loathing and nausea that seeing him simply excrete it (wherever it might be) as we do all our other droppings. I considered that what he said was not totally unreasonable, but habit had prevented me from noticing just that strangeness which we find so hideous in similar customs in other countries.
