Outsourcing
• We can no longer compete in
the global marketplace like we
used to…outsourcing is the
economical choice of
corporations.
• Ingenuity will be valued in
tomorrow’s workforce.
• Most of the jobs our students
will have do not exist today.

It’s a New Age…
• From left–brained, linear
thinkers of yesterday to…

empathy and creativity for
success today and in the
future.

It’s a New Age…
•
The Agricultural Age – agrarian,
farms
•
The Industrial Age – factories;
transitional stories, the tale of
John Henry
•
The Information Age – knowledge
workers; humans versus
computers, i.e., chess and Gary
Kasparov

Defining 21st Century Skills
The central task of education is to implant a will and
a facility for learning; it should produce not learned
but learning people. The truly human society is a
learning society, where grandparents, parents, and
children are students together.
In a time of drastic change it is the learners who
inherit the future. The learned usually find
themselves equipped to live in a world that no
longer exists.
- Eric Hoffer
Reflections on the Human Condition, aph. 32 (1973)

Partnership for 21st Century
Learning
16
16Saturday, April 12, 2008
“This is a story about the big public
conversation the nation is not having
about education… whether an entire
generation of kids will fail to make the
grade in the global economy because
they can’t think their way through
abstract problems, work in teams,
distinguish good formation from bad, or
speak a language other than English.”
How to Build a Student for the 21st
Century, TIME Magazine, December 18,
2006
Overview
17
17Saturday, April 12, 2008

18Saturday, April 12, 2008
1. U.S. students must compete in a new global economy.
2. The U.S. is falling behind.
3. The nature of work is changing.
4. The requirements of the 21st Century work force are
changing.

Century citizens.
