"We must ask ourselves what direction we want our education and research systems to go in. There is a huge amount of talk about the knowledge-based society, but I wonder whether this concept has not just become a sound bite which goes down well in the media. I think that there is too little talk about skills in this context and too much about accumulating knowledge.
If you carry out a survey among students, you will see that writing essays has become a practice involving the use of a few platitudes to fill up the space requested by teachers. There are some who will need to get involved in an economic environment where the recipes for success are no longer guaranteed. I think that the business world will not be alone in facing a radical overhaul as a result of the economic and financial crisis. This will apply to universities too, which will have to undergo certain transformations so that they can adapt to an environment in constant flux, requiring the acquisition of skills and not just knowledge."@en1
