78Young People Urgently Need New Skills to Succeed
in the Global Economy
- Headline in the news Nov. 6. 2006
79Technology has become an indispensable tool in
the education of todays students. ( Netday
survey, 2005)
80Todays students may not be well suited to the
more linear progression of learning that most
educators employ. ( Mark Prensky)
81Students think differently than us..they develop
hypertext mindsthey leap around..their cognative
structures are parallel not sequential. ( Mark
Prenskey )
82 Alan November.We need to emphasized the
necessity of students learning with others around
the world and stress that 3 skills are needed to
teach our children.
83We need to teach our students to deal with
massive amounts of information.
842. We need to teach our students global
communication, starting with Kindergarten.
853. We need to teach our students to be
self-directed and understand how to organize more
and more of their own learning.
86We cant avoid learning these tools. We cant
walk away from this-Alan November
87But I have a question
88Do our students know how to deal with the massive
amounts of information?
89Have we changed our teaching methods to reflect
new technology?
90Do our students know how to communicate globally?
91Do our students understand how to be
self-directed and how to organize their own
learning?
92The fact is, our young people are woefully under
prepared for the demands of todays workplace,
said Ken Kay, President of the Partnership for
21st Century Skills
93We cant solve problems by using the same kind
of thinking we used when we created them. -
Albert Einstein

103The people who will collaborate, create large
storehouses of information, learn about ourselves
and our world, change our relationship to
technology, and re-write the paradigms of how
things work will take years to process. The
people who will understand this best are probable
just being born.Dan Gillmor.

Richardson, 2006

competencies in their post-education lives.
(Will Richardson, 2006)
107The past 25 years in technology have been the
