Meet the Editors: The 4IR and teacher education in South Africa: Contemporary discourses and empirical evidence

Join the editors as they reflect on the second instalment of the Disruptions in higher education: Impact and implication book series. The book is scheduled to be published during Quarter Four 2022.

This book explores 4IR as an overarching framework within which education systems operate. Contingent upon the ideology of neo-liberalism, the 4IR seeks to transform societies in ways which respond to the relentless developments in technology, the Internet and digital capacities which, by design and intent, are purposed at increasing both productivity and the associated quality while at the same time reducing human intervention in the same processes.
