Trying to 'free' some of those students was almost impossible. I hope your project goes well and would love to see some of the results of it. diemerphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08026670996502404334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19457872.post-18438823722216999642012-09-14T10:17:36.456-04:002012-09-14T10:17:36.456-04:00I like your take on how we talk about the future w...I like your take on how we talk about the future with today's technology. We sit through pre-school meetings and without fail the year of when the incoming class of kindergartners will graduate high school always pops up. And then we are reminded that we are trying to prepare them for jobs that haven't been created yet. But what I always wondered was how do you prepare someone for something that hasn't been conceived yet? It does take some very forward thinking and imagination to teach this way, but my guess is that companies who are radical in this way of producing skills for the future don't get the bids that traditional, old school supervisors and legislators think are germane to learning. Those bids are saved for data management companies and companies who offer products that teach skills that leaders (most likely previous generation) remember when they were in school (because not much has changed in 30-40 years you know) Like you said, many people think the iPad is the future.... the future is already outdated!andrewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11392628847777427940noreply@blogger.com
