Changes in society change the educational systemand since we face fundamental changes in our society, we can expect changes to our educational system to the same degree. This may not happen in the next few years, but will eventually happen over time.

Drivers are manifold and despite the, at the moment, ever-present discussion around the term "digitalization", they are not only technology-based, but are also triggered by the changing value system and life-style of people.

The first driver is the so-called sharing paradigm. It can be observed as the sharing economy: homes, cars, knowledge. The second driver is also behavior-induced and bases on mobility, flexibility, and collaboration. These two drivers seem to also inflict the observable changes in the behavior of younger generations.
