Review the Perspectives of Vocational Education in Disruptive Society

Abstract

The world is currently undergoing a major transition in education that is being driven by "Technological Disruption" or the so-called "Disruptive Society". There are educational options for a shorter period, less investment and easier getting a job. Changing in disruptive society causes the labor market and the demand for skills and talents to change completely. The educational system is now developed from traditional lecture to learning media, homework to pre-work, course to pathway, exams to report progression, teachers to facilitators, the school to learning environment, workers to trade entrepreneurs, and employees to agile professionals (Krating Poonpol, 2018). The need for skills has increased and changed in a new direction. Hence, to meet the needs of the digital age society in a new economy, authority to make own decisions has become a new concept of work culture, especially in the fields which require high creativity. From the concepts that need to be changed for better things cause movement and changing of thought for new generation of children. They have their own decisions. Thus, to study in a Vocational College is one of the solutions for the learners to change in this disruptive society. The changes in consumer need change according to social trends that aim for reality and survival rather than self-image. However, the idea of well-being, happiness, and more convenient to reach the finish line for education is more important in this society. The question of vocational institutions might be asked that what structural elements are, how to organize curriculum and assessment. They must change and are able to answer how to survive in this disruptive society. Children can be in this society by not having to wait for the time to be ready, but by bringing them into the opportunity without hurting others. What the duties of the vocational institutions are to do directly with the students. They enable students to extract knowledge from the institution to use in their careers and take care of their family and themselves.
