The planning of content relevant and context relevant education

This paper dwells on the question of planning education for ten or twenty years hence. First, it deals with the question of career patterns and the importance of allowing more flexibility in the course sequences which individuals undertake at different periods of their life. Then, it discusses the divergence in facts and the dissonance in beliefs which may exist between the planners and students soon to become graduates. It makes a plea for resolving these differences by asking educators to become more content relevant and context relevant. Through this process, education will be enhanced and learning facilitated.
