The Soul and Role of Education

Mind of Mankind – a necessity to become and to be a contributing global citizenLearn the Competencies needed to work –knowledge, skills and personality (soft skills)Educate the knowledge workers (“researchers”) which will do the disruptive innovations that create the Future – research and innovation are tools for education

Education brought us here

Why, I am working for EIT Digital with Education?

Education is our most important societal Infrastructure!Education has, right now a once in a Millennium potential to

transformEducation involves very much to work with people,

especially young ones. You can fool Yourself!Europe has a unique position to change the global

Education Landscape but America, China and Africa is doing it

What is (Higher) Education?It is, the Mind of Mankind – Human Sapiens defeated Neanderthals

100 thousand years ago because they taught their off spring what they learned themselves one of the three societal Sectors that has had least productivity

increase the last Century, the other two are Health and Construction (William Bamoul) about to be revolutionized due to the Digital and Internet

Development in Interaction with new Neurology and Social Science Research not about teaching knowledge, it is about learning knowledge,

skills and attitudes the key to manage and teach the Competencies people need

when Job Cycles become shorter and shorter
