iPods in Vending Machines Signs of the Times….
Are you Ready for 21st Century Teaching and Learning? It isn’t just “coming”… it has arrived! And schools who aren’t redefining themselves, risk becoming irrelevant in preparing students for the future.
Source: Journal of School Improvement, Volume 3, Issue 1, Spring 2002 Ten Trends: Educating Children for Tomorrow’s World
Trend 1: For the First Time in History, the Old Will Out Number the Young life expectancies go up and birth and death rates go down. growing enrollment in schools at a time teaching profession has a shortage School Impact-  cross generational sensitivity curriculum  Virtual communities that use elderly and retired teachers as mentors and teachers
Trend 2: Social and Intellectual Capital Will become the Primary Economic Value in World Economy In an economy driven by technology and information, increased levels of knowledge are needed. What and who you know will count. Being able to access knowledge and network will be important. Unleashing collective knowledge, ideas, and experiences of people creates and heightens value. School Impact - Schools need to look outside education to know what knowledge and skills students will need to prepare them for the future. Teachers need to model how to make connections and to collaborate together online. Students will need to develop online community management skills
Trend 3: Education Will Shift from Averages to Personalization Outdated metrics in the states are resulting in preparing students for jobs of the1950s and narrow the curriculum. The counter movement will be one of personalization to ensure support for individual students  School Impact - Educators will be expected to bring out the talents of each and every student.  Schools will move toward performance based assessments Inquiry driven approaches will become necessary to prepare students for 21 st  Century learning
Trend 4: Millennials Will Insist on Solutions to Accumulated Problems Generational experts predict the generation born 1982-2003 will be similar to the “greatest generation” of WWII. They will be willing to lay their life down for causes they feel are just. They will lead the fight for the environment, social injustice, ect. School Impact - Schools will need to intensify efforts to help students become civil, responsible citizens with high self-efficacy.  Schools will need to help students develop team building and strong conflict resolution skills, as well as how to use participatory media to build and address a cause. Schools will give students a voice in decisions that affect them, facilitate the synthesis of the information available, accept change as normal, offer generation-spanning PD for teachers.
Trend 5: Technology Will Increase the Speed of Communication and Pace of Advancement or Decline Trend 6:  Knowledge Creation and Breakthrough Thinking will Stir a New Era of Enlightenment Trend 7:  Scientific Discoveries and Societal Realities Will Force Ethical Choices Trend 8:  Competition Will Increase and Industry will Intensify their Efforts to Attract and Retain Talented People
 
You Ain’t Seen Nothing Yet! Web 1.0   Web 2.0 Web 3.0
Some statistics- - 1 billion people on the Internet  57 million blogs, 1.7 million posts  a day. 50 new blog sites created every minute “ None of the top 10 jobs that will exist in 2010 exist today." --  Richard Riley , (Former US Sec. of Ed.) A Changing World " Jobs in the new economy--the ones that won't get outsourced or automated--"put an enormous premium on creative and innovative skills, seeing patterns where other people see only chaos." -- Marc Tucker, (an author of the skills-commission report and president of the National Center on Education and the Economy*
It is estimated that  1.5 exabytes  of unique new information  will be generated  worldwide this year. That’s estimated to be  more than in the  previous 5,000 years. Knowledge Creation
For students starting a four-year technical or higher education degree, this means that . . . half of what they learn in their first year of study will be outdated by their third year of study.

"Technological change is not additive, its ecological. A new technology does not change something, it changes everything" [Neil Postman]   Source: Mark Treadwell - http://www.i-learnt.com
Creativity Creativity is now as important in education as literacy and we should treat it with the same status. If you're not prepared to be wrong then you will never come up with anything original.   We don't grow into creativity we grow out of it, or rather, we get educated out of it.
Two Perspectives Tom Carroll, NCTAF Peter Vaill  Antioch University http://sxnuss.people.wm.edu/tom_carroll.swf http://sxnuss.people.wm.edu/peter_vaill.swf
Time Travel Lewis Perelman, author of  School's Out  (1992). Perelman argues that schools are out of sync with technological change:  . ..the technological gap between the school environment and the "real world" is growing so wide, so fast that the classroom experience is on the way to becoming not merely unproductive but increasingly irrelevant to normal human existence  (p.215).  Seymour Papert (1993) In the wake of the startling growth of science and technology in our recent past, some areas of human activity have undergone megachange. Telecommunications, entertainment and transportation, as well as medicine, are among them. School is a notable example of an area that has not (p.2).
Rethinking Teaching and Learning Multiliterate Changing Demographic Active Content Creators Collaboration and Communication We are in the midst of seeing education transform from a book-based, linear system to an web-based, divergent system with profound implications for every aspect of teaching and learning.

What will be our legacy… Bertelsmann Foundation Report:  The Impact of Media and Technology in Schools 2 Groups Content Area: Civil War One Group taught using Sage on the Stage methodology One Group taught using innovative applications of technology and project-based instructional models End of the Study, both groups given identical teacher-constructed tests of their knowledge of the Civil War. Question: Which group did better?
Answer… No significant test differences were found
However… One Year Later Students in the traditional group could recall almost nothing about the historical content Students in the traditional group defined history as:  “the record of the facts of the past” Students in the digital group  “displayed elaborate concepts and ideas that they had extended to other areas of history” Students in the digital group defined history as:  “ a process of interpreting the past from different perspectives”
Digital Divide Those who don’t Those who know how to band together online
Change is Hard
Real Question is this: Are we willing to change- to risk change- to meet the needs of the precious folks we serve? Can you accept that Change (with a “big” C) is sometimes a messy process and that learning new things together is going to require some tolerance for ambiguity.
