The Digital Age: Knowledge Skills, Dispositions
“You have to know how to evaluate, interpret and understand…The person who wins the Nobel Prize in biology is not the person who read the most journal articles and those notes on them. He’s a person who knew what to look for and cultivating that capacity to seek what’s significant, always willing to question whether you’re on the right track. That’s what education is going to be about whether it’s using computers and internet or pencil and paper or books.”
Noam Chomsky
The American job market is changing, of course, and the nation does need more highly skilled workers than in the past.
While plenty of low-skill jobs remain, most of the fastest-growing and highest-earning jobs do require more education and training.
There are also obviously some discrete new skills that students need because of advances in technology.
But, overall, none of these skills are unique to the 21st century.

The goal of education should not be to make every child “college ready” but “innovation ready”--ready to add value to whatever they do.

Digital Age Citizenship: Learning to Use the
Hammer“As far as technology itself and education is concerned, technology is basically neutral. It’s like a hammer. The hammer doesn’t care whether you use it to build a house or whether on torture, using it to crush somebody’s skull, the hammer can do either.”
Noam Chomsky

The View From the Classroom
http://larrycuban.wordpress.com/
It’s Not Just Schools…Big Idea: Management is an outdated technology. Put a 1960s-era CEO in a time machine and transport him to 2010, Hamel says, and that CEO “would find a great many of today’s management rituals little changed from those that governed corporate life a generation or two ago…Most of the essential tools and techniques of modern management were invented by individuals born in the 19th century, not long after the end of the American Civil War.” The solution? A radical overhaul of this aging technology.

I'm calling for investments in educational technology that will help create ... educational software that is as compelling as the best video game. I want you guys to be stuck on a video game that's teaching you something, other than just blowing something up.
