The Future of Learning

The goal of The Future of Learning is to publish multidisciplinary discussions that contribute to improving the education of children and adults of all ages anywhere on earth. These improvements must be founded on well thought out educational methodologies and policies and a better understanding of human learning. They can involve information technology (e-learning, Internet, broadband) but only as a support tool, not as an end in itself. The book identifies factors that contribute to the current crisis in education, which is now felt throughout the world. It reports on some innovative projects that give hope for the future, and surveys recent results in cognitive neuroscience, artificial intelligence, and educational psychology. This volume also examines the potential uses of broadband and mass media in supporting education.
