Empowering Communities to Improve Education
In the February 2007 E-Letter edition, KnowledgeWorks Foundation is asking the question "What will schools be like in 2016? Will technology change everything about how students learn? What subjects will be taught in typical classroom - and will there even be classrooms as we know them?"
To help educators think about questions like those, KnowledgeWorks Foundation has created a comprehensive and provocative new tool called the Education Map of the Decade, along with an interactive website to explore its implications. Developed in partnership with the Institute for the Future, the education map identifies external forces that are likely to shape the primary and secondary education system over the next 10 years.
"The map is designed to provoke thought leaders to think ab out the future of education in new ways," said Barbara Diamond, KnowledgeWorks vice president of education strategy. "It encourages people to anticipate what the near future might bring and consider what should be done to shape or respond to that future." You can read the report here.
