    Nice slide deck and useful questions.
  • Michelle Krill on 02 Aug 09
     
    The past few years have seen an explosion of disruptive technologies that challenge the way we think, the way we operate, and the status quo of educational practice. Understandably, critical questions have emerged regarding the use of these technologies in education. Do they actually lead to new literacies, or do they simply provide a new context for the development of skills educators have always valued? What impact are they really having on students and schools? How can organizations implement, evaluate, and sustain these technologies in the service of learning?

  • Creating a 21st century education system that prepares students, workers and citizens to triumph in the global skills race is the central economic competitiveness issue currently facing the United States, according to a new report released by the Partnership for 21st Century Skills.
  • Sponsored by the Partnership for 21st Century Skills, Ford Motor Company Fund, KnowledgeWorks Foundation and the National Education Association, the report notes that the country’s economic output has changed dramatically over the past 30 years and there is no sign this trend will stop.
  • As the world continues to shift from an industrial economy to a service economy driven by information, knowledge and innovation, cultivating 21st century skills is vital to economic success.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • While the global economy has been changing, the United States has focused primarily on closing domestic achievement gaps and largely ignored the growing necessity of graduating students capable of filling emerging job sectors.
  • Abroad, developed and competing nations have focused on imparting a different set of skills – 21st century skills –  to their graduates because these skills increasingly power the wealth of nations. Furthermore, businesses now require workers who can handle more responsibility and contribute more to productivity and innovation.
  • “Through my work with the business community, it has become apparent that there isn’t a lack of employees that are technically proficient but a lack of employees that can adequately communicate and collaborate, innovate and think critically,” said Ken Kay, president of the Partnership for 21st Century Skills. “At this pivotal moment in our nation’s history, legislators and policymakers must focus on the outcomes we know produce graduates capable of competing in the 21st century and forging a viable economic future.”

  • “It’s like I can distantly read everyone’s mind,” Haley went on to say.
  • It can also lead to more real-life contact, because when one member of Haley’s group decides to go out to a bar or see a band and Twitters about his plans, the others see it, and some decide to drop by — ad hoc, self-organizing socializing.

  • But it’s easy to tweet all the time, to post pictures of what I’m doing, to keep social relations up.” She paused for a second, before continuing: “Things like Twitter have actually given me a much bigger social circle. I know more about more people than ever before.”
  • The rest are weak ties — maintained via technology.
  • Remote acquaintances will be much more useful, because they’re farther afield, yet still socially intimate enough to want to help you out.
  • If you’re reading daily updates from hundreds of people about whom they’re dating and whether they’re happy, it might, some critics worry, spread your emotional energy too thin, leaving less for true intimate relationships.
  • “They can observe you, but it’s not the same as knowing you.”

      It's all about transparency, it seems.
  • The act of stopping several times a day to observe what you’re feeling or thinking can become, after weeks and weeks, a sort of philosophical act.
  • In an age of awareness, perhaps the person you see most clearly is yourself.

  • IF STUDENTS are to succeed in today's complex economy, they need to know more than just English, math, science, and history. They also need a range of analytic and workplace skills.
  • Mastering those skills means learning how to think critically and creatively, work collaboratively, use the Internet to do research, and communicate clearly and effectively.
  • Students also need to be responsible and accountable, to be up on the news, and to have a workable knowledge of economics and business.

  • Now, this is a report some skeptics might well dismiss as another attempt to reinvent the educational wheel.
  • From IT to business etiquette to networking to preparing a resume to little things like having a proper handshake and making appropriate small talk, Oliver says she's learning how to conduct herself in the business world.
