THIS SEEMS TO B VERY DIFFICULT 4 ME WHEN I USED TO B UNDERSTAND IT.SO IF I WANNA TO B CONVERT IT INTO URDU TO UNDERSTAND WHAT HAS WRITTEN IN FOLLOWING ,WHAT SHOULD I DO
“Education does not develop autonomously: it tends to be a mirror of society and is seldom
at the cutting edge of social change. It is retrospective, even conservative, since it teaches the
young what others have experienced and discovered-about the world. The future of education
will be shaped not by educators, but by changes in demography, technology and the family. Its
ends - to prepare students to live and work in their society - are likely to remain stable, but its
means are likely to change dramatically”.
“Schools, colleges and universities will be redefined in fundamental ways: who is educated,
how they are educated, where they are educated - all are due for upheaval. B Ut their primary
responsibility will be much the same as it is now: to teach knowledge of languages, science,
history, government, economics, geography, mathematics and the arts, as well as the skills
necessary to understand today’s problems and to use its technologies. In the decades ahead, there
will be a solid consensus that, as Horace Mann, an American educator, wrote in 1846,
“Intelligence is a primary ingredient in the wealth of nations”. In recognition of the power of this
idea, education will be directed purposefully to develop intelligence as a vital national resource”.
“Even as nations recognize the value of education in creating human capital, the institutions
that provide education will come under increasing strain. State systems of education may not
survive demographic and technological change. Political upheavals in unstable regions and the
case of international travel will ensure a steady flow of immigrants, legal and illegal, from poor
nations to rich ones. As tides of immigration sweep across the rich world, the receiving nations
have a choice: they can assimilate the newcomers to the home culture, or they can expect a
proliferation of cultures within their borders. Early this century, state systems assimilated
newcomers and taught them how to fit in. Today social science frowns on assimilation, seeing it
as a form of cultural coercion, so state systems of education are likely to eschew cultural
imposition. In effect, the state schools may encourage trends that raise doubts about the purpose
or necessity of a state system of education”. (Diane Ravieh).

Education And Hybrid Societies

Education does not develop independently. It is base and index of society and tells the youth about experiences of the elders and makes people suitable for society. Instead of educationists, behavior of people defines the future of education. Institutes not only, promise to develop figures but also impart knowledge, skills and their applications. When everyone will be agreed that intelligence is actual treasure and education is essential to groom it than the institutions will come under pressure because their administration will be changed .As people will migrate to develop countries, the developed countries will either fit them according to their own culture or promote a mixed culture. Previously they absorbed them in their own culture but aliens dislike being adapted so institutes should refrain from those steps that can make them ambiguous
