Whole Foods
21st Century Jobs We have to ask ourselves: can it be done overseas cheaper? can a computer do it faster? is in it demand in an age of abundance?
We must develop minds and skills that cannot be out-sourced
21st Century jobs will require abstract tasks…  critical thinking, creativity, innovation
manual tasks… interpersonal interactions, empathy, service, communication

Speak Up Results 2009 What are our kids saying? The Digital Divide is Alive and Well – our students are still powering down to go to school and powering up after school to re-enter the digital world.  Collaboration - students want to be able to interact    and learn from their own personalized network of experts using cutting edge communications and collaboration tools.  Anytime/Anyplace  - They understand that learning is a 24/7 enterprise and need learning tools and processes that are not tethered to time, place and geographic boundaries.
Speak Up Results 2009 What are our kids saying? 4.  Web 2.0 Tools for Creativity and Innovation – students recognize from their own experiences growing up immersed in digital media that the best way to drive educational productivity is through the effective use of rich and relevant digital tools, content and resources. 5.  New paradigm- Technology is enabling, empowering and engaging these Free Agent Learnersin ways that traditional learning paradigms are not.
The “Free Agent Learner” ,[object Object]
is engrossed in developing their own content for learning,
regularly creates new communities for knowledge exchanges and social interaction,
is an expert in data aggregation to drive experiential learning
believes that he or she must be responsible for their own learning destiny since their school is not meeting their needs, and
is empowered by a wide variety of emerging technologies to do so,[object Object]
