Employment effects of technological change : some implications for education / by Keith Newton.: EC22-6/1985E-PDF

"In this paper we attempt to raise some issues concerning the impact of technological change on the labour market, and its implications for the education system. In the next section it draws upon work in progress in the Economic Council of Canada's Labour Markets and Technological Change Project to outline some major employment consequences of technological change. Section 3 then raises some issues concerning changing occupations, skills, and their educational implications. Section 4 reviews some questions about the possibility of collaboration between educators and industrialists to meet the technological challenge. Some concluding comments are offered in Section 5"--Introd., p. 1.
