This book applies the theory of disruptive innovation, originally developed for business contexts, to the field of education. It examines how existing educational structures often struggle to adapt to diverse student needs and how alternative approaches enabled by technology and new organizational models could reshape learning. The expanded edition updates earlier analysis with additional perspectives on the evolving landscape of education. The work discusses how personalized learning, digital tools, and non-traditional delivery methods may create new pathways for students who are underserved by conventional schooling. It considers the institutional barriers that typically impede change in education and suggests conditions under which transformation becomes possible. The book draws on research into innovation patterns across industries to frame its arguments about educational reform, without prescribing a single uniform solution for all contexts.
