Saying traditional education is going to take a dive due to innovation, is a lot like saying the education of accountants will change due to inception of a program more complex than quickbooks. Sure the education will change but not enough to say that the traditional format will take a dive. Most of the innovation you see in electronics is on the systems level. On the circuitry level you see the same componets over and over. The innovation on the circuitry level is how those componets are arranged to do useful work, with transistors being the most sophisticated of those componets. Therefore innovation on the circuitry level consists of how you lump those transistors together, arrange them, bias them, what materials you use to make them ect. At the end of the day they are still transistors how they are arranged and placed in the circuit with other componets is what makes the difference. Therefore electronics will continue to follow the law that says: the more componets in the system the more often the system will malfuction. You could build a machine that can troubleshoot a large complex system, and ALL of the related subsystems, but the more complex it has to be, the more often it will fail thus still requiring troubleshooters with knowlege of electron physics and trigonometry to restore it's ability to fuction. So we will still have the systems analysts to isolate system faults to a specific computer, then will still have the hardware technicians to take that computer and isolate the fault to a specific circuit card and finally to the specific componet on that circuit card before repairing it, as well as software engineers to write the programs the system runs on and so on. The jobs that are being replaced by technology are the jobs that generally don't require a lot of thinking. Most people don't aspire to those jobs anyway, they will most likley be phased out slowly enough for some sort of decent transition.
