Change Implementation In Romanian Higher Education System

Romania has entered in information age, and Romanian Universities have found that paradigm shifts was occurring in all of our societal systems, from communications and transportation to the family and the workplace. Romanian society is changing in sweeping ways that make our current high educational system obsolete. The need for a new paradigm of education is based on massive changes in both the conditions and educational needs of an information society. Learning is highly compartmentalized into subject matters areas. Romanian students are treated as if they are all the same and are all expected to do the same things at the same time. They are also forced to be passive learners and passive members of their universities community. These features of our Romanian current system must all change (and are indeed beginning to change), for they are counterproductive - harmful to Romanian citizens and our society -in the information age.
