Education for Century Twenty-One as an Age of Maturity.

Boulding, Kenneth E.

Social Studies, v83 n2 p53-55 Mar-Apr 1992

Discusses the nature of the mind and education. Suggests that society learns more from mistakes than from simply replicating the mind of the teacher in the students. Expresses hope that the next century will be one of maturity in which society is able to see that old knowledge no longer applies to a changing world. (DK)
