FUTURISTIC HIGHER & TECHNICAL EDUCATION

Source: TV 2035 (Technology Roadmap Education)

At the centre of the ‘Literacy Wheel 2035’ are the markers that decide whether a person is considered literate or not in 2035. The spokes of the wheel point the way to further and continuing development. These would include courses & opportunities for building soft skills, vocational skills, skills that lead to expression of creativity, skills that lead to livelihoods, empowerment and dignity. The wheel will also include paths for higher education, vocational education, lifelong learning, which includes training and re-training.
Points on the rim represent the potential that an individual can realise on the basis of the core at the centre and the pathway/spoke that the learner has travelled down. The multiple spokes of creativity will add to the strength and structure of the wheel, thereby rendering it more stable. Technology will be the lubricant for the wheel, enabling the structure to be smoothly mobile.

As Per the TV 2035 (Technology Roadmap for Education)
