A New Way of Thinking: The Challenge of the Future.
Crowell, Sam
Educational Leadership, v7 n1 p60-63 Sep 1989
Education's greatest challenge is not technology or accountability, but the need to discover a new way of thinking. The shift from a Cartesian to a configuration view of the universe requires new conceptual models and compatible educational practices (like cooperative learning). Concepts of content/process and complexity and chaos need reformulation. (MLH)
