Abstract

[Technologies change behaviours, habits, lives and work patterns. Studies have revealed the vast impact of technologies on learning and teaching. As work competencies change, schools are challenged to grapple with curricula design, within a context of rapid transformations and ever-increasing complexity; whilst educators struggle to produce the style of personalised, online, resources that millennial, tech-savvy, students demand. This paper discusses how educators should respond to the new norm of learning given the rapid advancements in technology and the interdisciplinary knowledge required in this digital era. It outlines twenty-first century skills, examining how students integrate online information and resources to generate new knowledge and skills to cope with the ever-increasing complexity competencies at work. Through comparison and analysis of curricular, and sharing of learning and teaching practice, it offers insights into, and argues the case for, interdisciplinary curricular that can be delivered cross-institutionally, enabling flexible online learning with self-selected courses to suit individual student’s specific needs.]
