14. Personalised learning isn’t new – it builds on what the best teachers are already doing. However: • The world is getting more complex. • More complexity requires more knowledge and skills • More knowledge and skills requires more education • More education requires more teachers • The cost of teachers is rising • 18 million new teachers will be required by 2015 to cope with growing demand • The shortage has outstripped the ability of education leaders in many areas to recruit, train, and retain quality teachers • The lack of skilled or motivated teachers affects all levels of education and geographies • So, do we as society need to re-think Teaching?
