Canadian Context

Where are we going?

According to Dr. Tony Bates

Universities and colleges are needed more than ever in a digital age. However, they will survive only as long as they are relevant to society, in terms of providing the knowledge and skills that students will need, not just to survive in the workforce but to ensure that technology is used in ways that benefit the whole of society. This requires not only changes in our teaching methods but also in curriculum design."
