The Role of Carnegie in Redefining Education and Skills
Carnegie Foundation has played a crucial role in setting the standard of 120 credits for a college degree in 1906, which remains unchanged today despite advancements in learning sciences suggesting real problem-solving and experiential education for effective learning. The educational system is still tied to the outdated notion that time equals learning. Carnegie is seen as having a responsibility to address this issue by making essential skills for success in school, work, and life visible and understandable to all stakeholders over the next decade. By doing so, the education sector can become a more impactful driver of social and economic mobility.
