Barriers to change-Diana Laurrilard
1. The drivers of the education system – assessment, curriculum, inspection/quality requirements, funding flows, promotion criteria – have not changed in recognition of what technology offers, so nothing within it can change.
4
Barriers to change 2. Technological change is very rapid, and because every innovation is useful in education we need more time to make the radical changes they afford.
5
Barriers to change 3. The education system is run by leaders who are not comfortable with either the detail or the implications of the technology potential, and they need more support.
6
Barriers to change 4. Education is a political activity so avoids being subject to the innovation that market forces encourage.
7
Barriers to change 5. Education systems change slowly because they are hierarchical command - control systems, rather than devolved - power adaptive systems. Teachers and lecturers are given neither the power nor the means to improve the nature and quality of the teaching-learning process through technology.

1908 Learning 1958 2010 2012 Why is education so resistant to change? Over the next decade will it undergo as radical a transformation as the music industry? If so, it will have to face some of the same issues, such as preserving copyright and maintaining quality, and also some unique ones such as assessing learning in the field and bridging the gap between formal and non-formal education. We urgently need to address these issues if learning is to meet the challenges and opportunities of the mobile age. 32
