  • Mobile phones, computers everywhere, hypertext, social networking, collaborative cognition (from Wikipedia on up), Google, text-messaging, Twitter, audiobooks, digital texts, text-to-speech, speech recognition, flexible formatting - these are not "add ons" to the world of education, they are the world of education. This is how humans in this century talk, read, communicate, learn. And learning to use these technologies effectively, efficiently, and intelligently must be at the heart of our educational strategies.
  • Maybe worse than irrelevant. Maybe dangerous. The belief that "your" experience is relevant leads to a nightmare loop. Students who behave, and learn, most like their teachers do the best in classrooms. Teachers see this reflection as proof of their own competence - "The best students are just like me." And thus all who are "different" in any way - race, class, ability, temperament, preferences - are left out of the success story.

  • Just as journalists must become more curator than creator, so must educators.
  • we need to move students up the education chain. They don’t always know what they need to know, but why don’t we start by finding out? Instead of giving tests to find out what they’ve learned, we should test to find out what they don’t know. Their wrong answers aren’t failures, they are needs and opportunities.
  • Google, he said, is looking for “non-routine problem-solving skills.
  • ...5 more annotations...
  • “In the real world,” he said, “the tests are all open book,
  • We must stop looking at education as a product – in which we turn out every student giving the same answer – to a process, in which every student looks for new answers.
  • Why shouldn’t every university – every school – copy Google’s 20% rule, encouraging and enabling creation and experimentation, every student expected to make a book or an opera or an algorithm or a company
  • Rather than showing our diplomas, shouldn’t we show our portfolios of work as a far better expression of our thinking and capability?
  • education serves a unique role in society of preparing individuals for the “vital combat for lucidity”.

    If we have wireless everywhere, the ability to project onto the mind's eye, the ability to control a computer with our thoughts, and the ability to implant that computer in our body, how far away are we from having a bio-chip that gives us always-on access to the web? What will education do when children can recall facts they have never learned merely by thinking about the question? What skills do we teach then?
