Today's fourth industrial revolution is changing the way people relate to each other, to life and to work at an unprecedented pace. This is also having many implications for education.

On the one hand, there is a constant change in the knowledge and skills needed in the labour market, and on the other, technological progress is opening up a range of new possibilities in terms of learning and teaching methods.
