- By 2020, a new model for education in the 21st century emerges as experiments and tests of different models from 2015-2017 lead to new proposals being made around 2017. - There is a growing shortage of four-year college graduates recognized in 2016 and 2017 as the knowledge economy takes over from industrial and factory jobs. - Assessment and grading changes focus more on individual learner outcomes rather than time inputs, using multiple assessment formats and frequent quizzes rather than high-stress infrequent tests.

With Julie Coates and
William A. Draves

Economy

Knowledge
economy
takes over
Game Over

4. Society Needs 50% of Workers as
Knowledge Workers
• Use their brain and the Web
• Produce something intangible
• Have four year college degree
• Other workers are dependent
On knowledge workers

5. The Year 2015
Innovation Begins

6. The Year 2015
• Education leaders recognize the system is
“broken”
• Now in a time of experiments, tests, hits and
misses, fads. Some things will last.
• Around 2017 new models are proposed
• Around 2020 a new model emerges for
education in the 21st century

7. The Year 2016
4 Year College Graduate Shortage
Not enough smart students in the college pipeline

8. The Year 2016
• Growing awareness, culminating in 2017,
about the shortage of four year college
graduates.
• Online and F2F continue to overlap in some
best practices
• Grading system loses all legitimacy/respect
from employers
• “Engaged Learning” model develops further
• Innovation continues!

9. Assessment and Grading Changes
FROM time inputs and focus on time
TO focus on individual learner outcomes

10. Assessment and Grading Changes
1.Multiple assessments become
standard/required.
2.Assessments delivered in different formats
(oral, written, hands-on, drag-and-drop,etc.)
3.Students are highly engaged in peer review
and assessing each other’s work
4.We see third party grading. Teachers become
less involved in grading their students.

11. Assessment and Grading Changes
5.Data will give sufficient “value added” scores
to provide enough guidance on teacher quality
6.Behavior will be eliminated from grading. It
will be against the law to grade someone based
on the person’s behavior (attendance, late work,
fighting,breaking the law, etc.)
7.Frequent (weekly) quizzes will replace high-
stress infrequent tests/exams.

12. From Tests to Quizzes
Research shows frequent quizzes enhances
learning; quizzes now become part of learning

13. From Tests to Quizzes
• Quizzes are short tests
• Frequent quizzes enhance learning, now part
of learning, not just assessment
• Quizzes are 5-10 questions, usually multiple
choice or short answer, able to be completed
in 10-15 minutes. (Draves,Coates)
• Quizzes will be given, often online, every
Week, one for each subject or course.
• Weekly and/or Unit Quizzes will become the
standard way to measure learning and
knowledge. (Draves,Coates)
