The YouTube video Learning to Change—Changing to Learn describes what schools might be like in the future if technology were used to prepare students for life. In it we hear about 21st Century Skills, how teachers must learn to use the tools of technology to help their students with these skills, and how we need to give teachers time to help them keep up with what's best for educating their students. The video stimulates thought about what a school is—is it a place, a community, a world? It asks us to think about where our students learning most of what they know about technologies. After watching the video, be sure to browse through some of the comments. The motivation for us to change is there in the video, but changing is the difficult part. How do we keep the best of what our schools and curricula have today and merge this into the best of what technology has to offer?
