2. “To understand their world we must be
willing to immerse ourselves in that
world. We must embrace the new digital
reality. If we can’t relate, if we don’t get
it, we won’t be able to make schools
relevant to the current and future needs
of the digital generation.”
– Ian Jukes

3. “You must be the change you want to see in the world.”
– Mahatma Gandhi
“If we teach today as we taught yesterday, we rob our
children of tomorrow.”
– John Dewey
“The illiterate of the 21st century will not be those who
cannot read and write, but those who cannot learn,
unlearn, and relearn.”
– Alvin Toffler
