Outlook of community-based services and education up to 15 years from now:
Key considerations in anticipated changes Possible funding scenarios, if appropriate The influences of diversity and the law on the outcome
Introduction
technological changes over globalization changing pedagogical concepts. learner-centred, flexible and personalized approaches to
learning the integration of learning into life and work he development and implementation of innovative
pedagogical concepts
Key Considerations in Anticipated Changes in Education
The education system of the future will undergo a
transition from a heavy emphasis on teaching to a heavy emphasis on learning.
Experts will create the courseware and the students will learn anytime or anywhere at a pace that is comfortable for them, learning about topics that they are interested in.
In the future, teachers will transition from topic experts to a role in which they act more as guides and coaches.
Key Considerations in Anticipated Changes in Education, cont’d
changing the way society organizes community services
so that care is more accessible altering the cultural view of aging to make sure all ages
are integrated into the fabric of community life. Without a sufficient and reliable community-based
workforce, fewer people who want to leave institutions will have that choice, while others may have to leave community settings for institutional living
Key Considerations in Anticipated Changes in Community-Based Services
Building a viable and affordable community-based
delivery system Recharging the concept of family and the value of seniors
in American culture Every community needs to think about what types of
institutional long-term care should be available. Even if community-based services expand, the most frail among the elderly will sometimes require the high level of care that traditionally has been provided by nursing homes.
Key Considerations in Anticipated Changes in Community-Based Services, cont’d
Non-Profit Organizations Federal, State, and Local Government Funding Private Funding from outside organizations Other funding options from community-based services
and education will come from private contributors who realize the importance and need for services and education to improve the over-all well-being of adults.
Possible Funding Scenarios
Grants; Community planners and governments rely on
census data to determine where there is the most need for additional social services and who gets needed funding, such as community development block grants.
Possible Funding Scenarios, cont’d
Diversity is central to our commitment to academic
excellence. We know that a diverse living and learning community improves the educational experience for all.
We work to affirm the dignity and worth of everyone in our community and to ensure that all feel supported in their differences.
A culturally diverse community has a wide range of traditions, languages, beliefs, values, ideas and practices
Influences of Diversity
As groups of people worked and lived together, they
developed distinctive cultures. Together the cultures of the world create a rich and varied tapestry.
The resulting cultural diversity expands choices, nurtures a variety of skills, human values and worldviews and provides wisdom from the past to inform the future. Cultural diversity is a mainspring for sustainable development for individuals, communities and countries.
Influences of Diversity, cont’d
Congress has enacted a number of civil rights statutes prohibiting discrimination in community-based services and educational programs receiving federal financial assistance. These statutes are: Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (prohibiting race, color, and national origin discrimination); Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 (prohibiting sex discrimination); Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (prohibiting disability discrimination); Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (prohibiting disability discrimination by public entities); and the Age Discrimination Act of 1975 (prohibiting age discrimination).
Influences of the Law
The federal civil rights laws have helped bring about profound changes in
American education and improved the educational opportunities of millions of students.
Many barriers that once prevented minorities, women, individuals with disabilities, and older persons from freely choosing the educational opportunities and careers they would like to pursue have been eliminated.
As we continue to work for the effective enforcement of the civil rights laws, it is important that we also look at the impact of the laws on students facing discrimination who attend our elementary and secondary schools and colleges and universities.
Influences of the Law
The following (anticipated changes, funding, and
influences of diversity and the law) are trends that are driving change in the world of education and community – based services. These trends will eventually define the size, scope, and speed of the emerging new system along with the characteristics needed for a global-scale adoption.
