32. The role of workforce, education, and
economic development collaboration in
U.S. competitiveness is to enable
innovation.
Similar to space in 1957, cyberspace is
now the the platform and engine of
education, workforce, and economic
innovation, while simultaneously
representing an emerging domain of
warfare, terrorism, and crime.
The integration of computers, networks,
software, and machines (cyber physical
systems) has given birth to a new
generation of work, education, and
economic development.

61. The key to Project-based Learning is learner
engagement in the public sphere. The learning
theory flows from Piaget’s constructiVism (V word)
and is extended by Papert’s ConstructioNism (N
word):
"Constructionism-the N word as opposed to the V
word- shares contructivism's view of learning as
"building knowledge structures "through progressive
internalization of actions... It then adds the idea that
this happens especially felicitously in a context where
the learner is consciously engaged in constructing a
public entity, whether it's a sand castle on the beach
or a theory of the universe ( Papert, 1991, p.1 in
Ackermann, n.d.)

College and Career Readiness was prepared for Achieve by Hans Meeder and Thom Suddreth of
the Meeder Consulting Group, with the Association for Career and Technical Education and the
National Association of State Directors of Career Technical Education Consortium.
“The goal of
ensuring that all
students graduate
from high school
ready for college,
careers and life has
taken hold in every
state across the
nation. Yet all too
often, the focus on
“college readiness”
and “career
readiness” remains
in two distinct
silos...”

68. On September 6, 1880, the St. Louis Manual Training School of
Washington University opened. Calvin Woodward, the director of the
school, inscribed the following aspirations for the new venture in
American education:
Hail the skillful cunning hand!
Hail to the cultural mind!
Contending for the world’s command,
Here let them be combined.
The new school did not tear down the essential parts of the old but
merely added a new method of developing ideas based on procedural
instruction in the use of tools and the construction of models to
demonstrate scientific principles and artistic craftsmanship. (Barlow,

93. There are between 3.8 (DOL) and 5.8
(OECD) million people in the US
employed in NIT.
Computer and mathematical occupations
are projected to add 785,700 new jobs from
2008 to 2018.
As a group, these jobs are forecast to grow
more than twice as fast as the average for
all occupations in the economy.

n 2008,the Comprehensive National Cybersecurity Initiative listed “expanded
cyber education” as one of its key recommendations. In 2009, the Partnership
for Public Service produced a report stating that the current pipeline of cyber-
security workers into the government was inadequate.1
In the same year,Secretary of
Defense Robert Gates stated that the military was “desperately short of people who
have the capabilities [to operate in cyberspace].”2
And in 2011, the Inspector Gen-
eral of the Federal Bureau of Investigation reported that 35 percent of the special
agents investigating national security cyber-intrusion cases lacked necessary training
and technical skills.3
Nonetheless, the U.S. Government and private sector still seek

Key Points
There is widespread agreement in
the public and private sectors that
U.S. educational institutions are un-
able to meet the growing demand
for cyber workforce professionals.
It is difficult to measure the true
size and requirements for the cyber
workforce due to the lack of com-
monly agreed upon cyber workforce
job titles and duty descriptions.
