Resumo

In a recent publication “The Handover: How we give control of our lives to corporations, states and AI” recently published by Profile Books Ltd., London, David Runciman suggests that there are some things that pose an existential threat to the human species. They are: nuclear war, climate change, biological warfare or disaster and artificial intelligence. The question is what are we doing about it – as a society? How prepared are we for any transition or transformation of existing architectures and choreographies? In this article, we direct our attention to one region of the globe – the Southwest Pacific region, where the authors are currently located, and we focus our attention on the area of ​​Education, in which we claim to have some knowledge and experience. This requires viewing educational provision through a new set of lenses.

Key-words: Flexible learning; Resilience in Education; Systems with Open. 

 

 Resumo

Numa publicação recente “The Handover: How we give control of our lives to corporations, states and AI” publicada recentemente pela Profile Books Ltd., Londres, David Runciman sugere que existem algumas coisas que representam uma ameaça existencial para a espécie humana. São eles: guerra nuclear, alterações climáticas, guerra biológica ou desastre e inteligência artificial. A questão é o que estamos fazendo a respeito – como sociedade? Quão preparados estamos para qualquer transição ou transformação das arquiteturas e coreografias existentes? Neste artigo, dirigimos a nossa atenção para uma região do globo – a região do Sudoeste do Pacífico, onde os autores estão actualmente localizados, e centramos a nossa atenção na área da Educação, na qual afirmamos ter algum conhecimento e experiência. Isto exige ver a oferta educativa sob um novo conjunto de lentes.

Palavras-chave: Aprendizagem flexível; Resiliência na Educação; Sistemas abertos.
