Forecasting the Technological Future: Directions for Education.
Watkins, Peter
Unicorn, Journal of the Australian College of Education, v12 n2 p81-86 May 1986
Recent studies indicate that the popular acceptance of linking education instrumentally to high technology leads to contradictory outcomes (for example, Sweet 1984, Rumberger and Levin 1985). Education is better directed toward the more fundamental skills of criticism and reflection on these technological changes in society. (24 references) (CJH)
