Although “learning” around the world is being transformed by unprecedented changes, we find ourselves filled with energy and optimism. We look forward to what tomorrow will bring. Although some educators view falling birthrates, world-wide economic challenges and the ongoing reform of education systems in many countries in a negative light, these challenges have become a source of new inspiration for us.
As long as we continue to help every stakeholder in the education process realize their dreams, the future will be bright for all of us in the wider educational community.
