MEGATRENDS FOR HIGHER EDUCATION IN THE WORLD TILL 2020

In Ancient Greece numerous mathematicians managed to gain global fame. Figures such as Archimedes and Euclid presented new thoughts to the scientific society and contributed to growth of mathematics. Sometime later, the Roman Empire made develop science, if failed to progress defeated the Greek empire and replaced it in the world. Despite all the attempts that the Roman Empire as much as the ancient Greek empire did in mathematics. One reason was the fact that the Roman Empire was deprived of famous talented mathematicians that boosted the scientific capabilities of the Greek empire . for instance,the numerical system in Roman Empire was so primitive that it failed to define numbers, equations and many other simple relations. This weakness and complexity in the numerical system prevented them from doing advanced mathematical operations and , eventually, making progress in the field. Roman society and mathematicians were so submerged in their numerical system that they did not even feel the complexities. As an example, since they could not work well with their accounting and banking systems ,they attributed this weakness to the accounting system itself not to the numerical system or mathematics. today's world is much different from the age of Roman and Greek Empires. However, we are still entangled in our own systems such as measurement, balance ,accounting , banking , logistics, traffic management and the like .we are much similar to ancient Roman scholars in this respect. As we are submerged in these systems, we refuse to acknowledge their basic shortcomings. At the same time, we are stubborn enough to refrain from reviewing processes, presuppositions, structures and hypotheses.
