So we are preparing our students for ... what?

 
Here are some questions:
What and how to teach? Will it be useful in a few years? Should we teach facts or abilities? Creativity will be one of the most impotant abilities if it's not already. Are schools ready for a change? Are we teachers ready for changes?
Are you learning things that are useful? Or things you have to? Would you like you school to be more open to technologies? Would it help your personal/educational development?

  3. What to teach?
    Obviously something relevant :)
    Who can decide what is relevant? This world is changing so fast that I cannot tell what is relevant tomorrow...
    Anything we teach, critical thinking should be involved so as to empower students to be able to decide on WHAT they should learn. And they should be given a number of ways of learning all the relevant stuff. Hmm?

  4. Each student is different, We cannot expect them to act/learn and understand things the same way. Let them explore how they want to learn things.
