READINESS
Einstein’s quip that “not everything that counts can
be counted, and not everything that can be counted
counts” certainly applies. Schools must begin to
report what needs to be counted to adequately
measure true success.

Jobs of the Future
• Employers value workers who can think critically and solve
  problems.
• Occupations that employ large shares of workers with post-
  secondary education and training are growing faster than
  others.
• Post-high school education and training system provides
  valuable skills to those who complete programs in high-
  growth fields.



    PREPARING THE WORKERS OF TODAY FOR THE JOBS OF
    TOMORROW July 2009
MetLife Survey of the
American Teacher: Career and
College Ready
• Core skills and setting expectations were
  important to teachers

• 84% of students in survey say that graduating
  career and college ready is important

• Interdisciplinary skills were rated high

• Teachers, parents, and executives believe that
  higher-order, cross-disciplinary skills (such as
  writing, critical thinking, and problem solving),
  and self motivation and team skills are more
  important for college preparation than higher-
  level content in mathematics and science.

• Executives place much greater emphasis than
  the other groups on the capacity for team
  work.

  • #8 School isn’t a place for “self-direction” – do kids need direction to figure out video games?Very hard to assess self-direction – it’s not about teaching kids to be self-directed, it’s about creating an environment where they can be self-directed…Problem solving and creativity are closely related Type 1 defined problem – defined answerType 2 defined problem – no defined answerType 3 no defined problem – no defined answer
  • #10 Bit of an outlier, but these kinds of questions will be asked of our kids when they graduateHave to allow kids to fail and learn from it so they will take risksTED is a nonprofit devoted to Ideas Worth Spreading. It started out (in 1984) as a conference bringing together people from three worlds: Technology, Entertainment, Design
  • #11 Technology has a supportive role…What is TPACK?Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) attempts to capture some of the essential qualities of knowledge required by teachers for technology integration in their teaching, while addressing the complex, multifaceted and situated nature of teacher knowledge. At the heart of the TPACK framework, is the complex interplay of three primary forms of knowledge: Content (CK), Pedagogy (PK), and Technology (TK).
