This special issue of Kybernetes is a contribution to the current crisis of education world-wide. The huge amount of evidence coming from the so-called science of learning is pointing to recurrent failures in the process of teaching at all levels: from schools to higher education in colleges and universities (Barnes et al 2017; Pascherl et al 2008).
