    Ok, this is all from Cisco, but some of it is really valuable. The whitepaper on Education 3.0 is very interesting. Additionally, the link below is a recent screencast on Education 3.0. You will have to go through a bit of a "sign up" type screen before getting access to the Cisco screencast, but I recommend it. The superintendent from NY who follows the Cisco rep is really good.  https://ciscosales.webex.com/ciscosales/lsr.php?AT=pb&SP=EC&rID=47315262&rKey=fb74b1bb0a6e38ec

  • Our global environmental, economic and social challenges require non-standardized skills such as creativity, problem-solving and collaboration. Accordingly, these are becoming indispensable skills for learners and workers who hope to stay at the innovative edge of today and tomorrow. While these 21st century skills are essential, they aren't enough. There is a growing expectation for these abilities to be leveraged and expressed using digital tools.
  • As media scholar Henry Jenkins has said: "Traditionally we wouldn't consider someone literate if they could read but not write. And today we shouldn't consider someone literate if they can consume but not produce media."
  • The literacy of the future rests on the ability to decode and construct meaning from one's constantly evolving environment -- whether it's coded orally, in text, images, simulations, or the biosphere itself. Therefore we must be adaptive to our social, economic and political landscape. Those of us living in this digital age are required to learn, unlearn and learn again and again.

  • "The dogmas of the quiet past are inadequate to the stormy present. The occasion is piled high with difficulty, and we must rise with the occasion. As our case is new, so we must think anew and act anew."
