Hard to talk sensibly about education without some narrative about the probable state of society. Even with serious change people will try to hold on to old structures, but that seem unrewarding and circling the wagons. But real changes are probably coming. What should be the approach to education for such changes?

My guess is that much of current education will seem a waste and serious skills, including technical, can be absorbed rapidly if the motive is high. Watch the way a lawyer masters a new field for a single case. Let’s say the major task will be to assess and inventory food supplies and design new none cash ways of distributing these to a scared. demoralized and maybe violent population? What kind of education…..?
