What are the requirements arising from global competition in education? What do digitalisation and the reorganisation of knowledge on the basis of genetics demand of education? Education through discipline or education through individualisation? Education controlled by tests or education based on comprehensive assessment? Does the teacher remain the central personality in education, or is the role reduced to that of a transmitter of knowledge? What is the role of the family, institutions, the media and the social environment in education? What is the social status of the teacher? What is the relationship between unity and diversification in an education system? How can the current &#8220;brain drain&#8221; be converted into &#8220;brain gain&#8221;? What is the role of reading and of books in education? How is an entrepreneurial mindset created? How is democratic civic education carried out? How is patriotic education linked with universalist education? How is critical citizen thinking formed? How can we keep our distance both from opportunistic conformism and from an anarchic refusal of organisation? These are not just a few questions, but the <em>to-do list<\/em> to be resolved at the third edition of The Sinaia Debates.<\/p>\n<p>The format of the event remains unchanged, including three rounds of discussion. The first focuses on <strong><em>Crises in Education, Crises of Education, Crises in Society<\/em><\/strong>, with speakers from London, Budapest, Beirut, Bucharest, Cluj-Napoca and Timi\u0219oara; the second addresses <strong><em>The State of Education<\/em><\/strong>, debated by speakers from Toru\u0144, Montreal, Budapest, Bucharest, Cluj-Napoca and Timi\u0219oara; and speakers from Lisbon, Ljubljana and the most important cities in Romania seek <strong><em>Solutions<\/em><\/strong> in the final round.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Alexandrion Foundation is organising the third edition of The Sinaia Debates on 29\u201330 March 2019 at the New Montana Hotel.
