“Every organized human activity - from the making of pots to the placing of a man on the moon - gives rise to two fundamental and opposing requirements: the division of laborinto various tasks to be performed and the coordinationof these tasks to accomplish the activity. Comenius meeting at South Zealand Business College 13-14 October 2005
“Every organized human activity - from the making of pots to the placing of a man on the moon - gives rise to two fundamental and opposing requirements: the division of laborinto various tasks to be performed and the coordinationof these tasks to accomplish the activity. The structure of an organization can be defined simply as the sum total of the ways in which it divides its labor into distinct tasks and then achieves coordination among them.

Bruner: ”The most important subject in school is school itself.” Comenius meeting at South Zealand Business College 13-14 October 2005
Subject 1 Subject 2 Subject 3 Subject 1 Subject 2 Subject 3 Subject 1 Subject 2 Subject 3 The ”normal” approach to education and curriculum based on the assumption that knowledge is department-alized into subjects. Several attempts from 1970 and onwards to remedy this situation, quickly hit the bedrock of political differences. Globalization forces subjects – individually as well as in relation to other subjects – to redefine themselves in order to produce new knowledge.
