“An analysis of the
history of technology
shows that
technological change is
exponential, contrary to
the common-sense
‘intuitive linear’ view. So
we won't experience
100 years of progress
in the 21st century -- it
will be more like 20,000
years of progress (at
today's rate)… because
we're doubling the rate
of progress every
decade, we'll see a
century of progress--at
today's rate--in only 25
calendar years.”

22. 21st century jobs are
increasingly transdisciplinary--
existing at the intersection of
multiple traditional industry and
academic domains.
23. “In most industries you
have electricians,
mechanics and IT, in wind,
you are expected to do
everything. Turbine Techs
earn $28-$40K a year…
Many techs earning $40K -
$80K a year with OT.”

Technicians earn
$30K-$36K per

38. Utilities
A California study indicates that peak-rate usage can be shaved by 20
percent if utilities used Automated Meter Reading (ARM) for accurate
pricing information--each megawatt of reduction can equate to $400,000 in
savings per year (Jackson, 2004, p. 1) saving California utilities and
consumers at least $5 billion a year.
http://www.utilitiesproject.com/documents.asp?grID=85&d_ID=2402
More than 25 million AMR
units installed on gas (21
percent), water (11 percent),
and electric utility (16
percent) meters.
200 million units yet to be
changed out to AMR
(Jackson, 2004).

60% of the jobs in the Texas
biotechnology cluster require only
an associates degree or certificate.
The reality is many of the Texas
Cluster’s high-tech jobs are split
between requirements for
community and technical college
degrees and 4-year degrees.
Skilled technical jobs are attainable
and critically needed by industry. Dr. Mae Jemison,

1.Students have professional aspirations,
but lack knowledge about how to reach
professional goals.
2.Opportunities to learn about and explore
careers are not available at school or
accessed by the majority of students.
3.Students lack knowledge about the
context and content of careers.
62. The Next Step
- Career Exploration
- Academic Planning
- Pathways, not Tracks
- Relevant Curriculum

108. A robust program of research and
experimentation is needed to enhance
development of educational games by
stimulating transfer of the art and
technologies of video games to
education and learning systems.
High development costs in an uncertain
market for educational innovations
make developing complex high-production
learning games too risky for video
game and educational materials
industries.
Educational institutions need to transform
organizational systems and
instructional practices to take greater
advantage of new technology, including
educational games.
Outcome data from large-scale
evaluations of educational games are
needed to demonstrate that these
technologies are equal to or offer
comparative advantage vs. conventional
IM.

the learning and
career development

tools with video
