Fearless Learners, Courageous Teachers

Alan November is a leading teacher educator in the field of educational technology. In early May, 2005, he published this webcast entitled: Fearless Learners, Courageous Teachers

It's about an hour long. He discusses three things that kids need to learn to be successful members of society in the future.

  1. Information Literacy
        - manage massive amounts of information
  2. Global Communication Skills
        - think globally
  3. Self Directed Learning and Work
        - be self-directed in their learning

Below, you'll find another vision of the future. Some of its implications are a little frightening but it is based on events and technologies that are current today. If you're not up-to-date with the latest web 2.0 technologies it can be hard to identify the point in the video where the speculation begins -- the item about "Reason Magazine" really happened.
