Przełom na uniwersytecie – słabe sygnały zmian
The Breakthrough at the University – Weak Signals of the Changes

Summary/Abstract: Contemporary models of education (including higher education), located under the pressure of various social, cultural and economic factors must evolve to meet today’s substantial challenges. As a consequence, university must attempt to find and define anew its role and performance of its social mission. Clayton M. Christensen developed the theory of disruptive innovation. It enables to identify the signs of change (in the form of weak signals) and to build innovative solutions on the basis of information carried by the signals. Distance learning, blended learning, massive open online courses are just some of the innovations in the field of education. May the theory be useful in determining the future of the university? Do the weak signals indicate the directions of change? How can we use this knowledge to transform the university? These are just some of the questions that provoked us to take the problem into consideration.
