4th Industrial revolution in education: Prof. Tshidilidzi Marwala

The global education system as it is now is being criticised for coaching children to pass exams instead of teaching them to think critically and solving problems. Experts say the structure of schooling focuses on content which will change as technology evolves. They say the fourth industrial revolution requires curriculum to change to teach kids to think critically to develop new products and solve the problems at hand. Talk of the fourth industrial revolution and economies around the world needing to gear up for it continues.  And players in the education space are seized with this reality.  To get his take on what he sees as the key skills for the future or even now and what he's doing to facilitate that in his capacity,  I'm joined in studio by Professor Tshidilidzi Marwala, Vice Chancellor at the University of Johannesburg.
