Universities need to change from providing information to developing skills.

These skills would include: information skills, thinking skills, people skills, management skills, operational skills, project skills etc. The ‘road map’ concept of education is not good enough. It is not enough to provide road maps of knowledge. You need to teach the skills of choosing the best route and the skill of driving itself.
