SYNTHESIS ON EDUCATION AND CULTURE FOR AN IMPROVED EDUCATION

This study will summarize the knowledge that we currently have on the process of innovation in education. It is therefore in part a synthesis; in this regard it is noted that it has drawn heavily on the literature that constitutes the vast majority of the literature explicitly dealing with innovation. It approaches all this material from both an educational and an environmental perspective and highlights the need to report on cases of improved living in other parts of the world in a more systematic way. This study goes further however. In order to provide a guide to this project. The concept of innovation in education is examined in depth. The changes that are introduced in school and higher education can be the key to any technological and economic development; in a given system the change may consist in adopting some practice already used elsewhere so that an innovation follows an invention. But what distinguishes an innovation from change in general is the element of planning or deliberate intent.
