PLN 22

            The article, "Talkin' Bout a Revolution. Well... Maybe"  by Will Richardson talks about how visions, such as the 2020 vision, tell of a bright future were education is redefined. While in reality this article tells about the negative downsides of this anticipated revolution. This matters to myself, education, and the world. First, this matters to myself. For starters Richardson declares, “The people in charge don’t really see this vision.” I realized that I am apart of the people that are supposed to be leading this revolution. Unfortunately, the majority of us, (us being the youth of the nation) seem not to take much interest in this revolution. Second, this matters to education because it seems despite new inventions and innovations of technology, the majority of schools have not changed the teaching style to include new technology. More importantly the new generations of thinkers, learners, and leaders have not embraced a new form of education. This matters to the world because all of the current students enrolled in different forms of education, will one day lead the world. One day, we the currents students, will be calling the shots, and making choices in the world that impacts everyone. As you can see the article, "Talkin' Bout a Revolution. Well... Maybe" matters to myself, education, and the world.
