Abstract

This paper explores the concept of education and, at the same time, links it to its reconceptualisation. The main purpose is to navigate the different changes in how education is conceptualised, understood, and applied at different levels. The concepts surrounding education and the way it is perceived may have changed, but there is a need for a more in-depth analysis of structures and their role in order to visualise the possibility of change for the greater benefit of education and an open channel of communication.
