Editorial: New World

The advent of a new world signals big changes which could be welcomed or shunned. In addition some of us could aspire to bring about changes in order to create a better new world.

Education is considered crucial for initiating and coping with changes. For this reason I include two articles that address educational challenges; and a third that highlights the positive outcomes of a modern education/business partnership. By looking at education from different perspectives these articles draw a more diversified picture for the way ahead.

Education in a New World - Jonathan Leigh (Master, Marlborough College)
Towards a Better Education System - Steve Wain (Principal, Swindon College)
New World by Design - Nemat Jarjis (HE Programme Leader, Swindon College)

In addition, I trust that you will be entertained by the two articles of Roy Smith. He excellently captures the widely held sentiments towards change in Who Needs a New World; and creates an imaginative world in Landing with the Captain.

Finally, I have written for you several "New World" inspired articles about aspects of architecture, knowledge, energy & environment, and scientific imagination. In addition, please note my linked articles, "Tears in Heaven" & "The Passion of Boy Scout Mazen", which expose an evil new world.
