The Education Gap: How To Bridge The Gap Between Our Kid Learning And What They Need

Education in its general sense is a form of learning in which the knowledge, skills, and habits of a group of people are transferred from one generation to the next through teaching, training, or research. Education frequently takes place under the guidance of others, but may also be autodidactic. Any experience that has a formative effect on the way one thinks, feels, or acts may be considered educational. Education is commonly divided into stages such as preschool, primary school, secondary school and then college, university or apprenticeship. A right to education has been recognized by some governments. At the global level, Article 13 of the United Nations 1966 International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights recognizes the right of everyone to an education. Although education is compulsory in most places up to a certain age, attendance at school often isnt, and a minority of parents choose homeschooling, elearning or similar for their children.

contrary to the common-sense ‘intuitive linear' view,

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) There's even exponential growth in the rate of

EXPONENTIAL

GROWTH

Ray Kurzweil

Children starting school this year will be retiring in 2065

Nobody has a clue, what the world will look like in five years time; and yet we are meant to be educating for it

so the unpredictability is

extraordinary

SO, WHAT IS THE SOLUTION

Children have extraordinarycapacities for innovation

my contention is that all kids have talents and we squander them, pretty ruthlessly

CREATIVITY

now is as important in education as literacy

And we should treat it with the same status

As the economy evolves, you pay more

for the ‘intangible component?’ than

the tangible component of a product and feel good about it

The tricks of the INTANGIBLE TRADE

Will become the tricks of your trade

The distinguishing characteristics of New Age:

It favors intangible things -— ideas,

information, and relationships

And iïf ¡s intensely interiinked

These attributes produce a new type of

marketplace and society that is based on

a new set of fundamentals and values
