Abstract

This paper provides an assessment of how 4IR   revolutions have impacted Smart education. It develops technical capacity in emerging technologies in active and project-based settings. The societal changes from the 4IR will require education to develop greater capacity for ethical and intercultural understanding, placing a premium on liberal arts-type education with modifications to adapt to the particular issues raised by 4IR technologies and their disruptions to society. It requires a rapid adjustment of curriculum by expanding its capacity to accommodate the acquisition of new knowledge by students, faculty and alumni, with new modalities of instruction that leverage the digital advances from the Third Industrial Revolution.
