How can people adapt to such rapid change? what types of educational experiences will people need in a changing world? what are some examples of things that have changed suddenly in your own life?

Well, you don't need education to know how to know  how to adapt to sudden changes as moving from Cali to Pa, but if you lost your job and became homeless. Then you would need to know how to start a fire or how to defend yourself when someone attacks you. Yes, you do need that type of education, but as far as book wise, No. Now you have to write something that tells them what type of change you went through and how you adapted. Hope I helped!
