Smart Education(Abridged Ed.).pdf

Smart Education: Pathways Toward Education 2050, marks a significant milestone in the collective efforts to understand and shape the future of education. Funded by the Chinese government and supported by the National Publication Foundation, it serves as a flagship publication representing the commitment to advancing global educational transformation with both academic insight and strategic vision. It brings together years of theoretical inquiry, empirical investigation, and practical experience to address a central question: How can smart education become a shared global vision for Education 2050? This book positions smart education as a transformative response to the evolving demands of the intelligent era. While rooted in the principles of the Education 2030 Agenda—particularly the recognition of education as a global common good—this vision extends further, anchoring itself in the long-term horizon of 2050. It seeks to promote inclusive development, social equity, and sustainability in an increasingly digital and interconnected world. Build on this value, smart education emphasizes high-quality learning, flexible and adaptive content, and enhanced instructional efficiency. These priorities are anchored in principles of shared responsibility, mutual trust, and empathetic collaboration. Ultimately, smart education seeks to foster inclusive learning communities that support human flourishing in an increasingly complex world.
