The Guardian är fortfarande en bra tidning!

I’m reminded of a Reddit question that was asked: “If someone from the 1950s appeared today, what would be the most difficult thing to explain to them about life today?” The best answer? “I possess a device, in my pocket, that is capable of accessing the entirety of information known to man. I use it to look at pictures of cats and get in arguments with strangers.”

Knowledge is worthless without the tools with which to interpret it. Critical thinking, decision making skills along with group learning and knowledge interpretation will be prized highly in the very near future. In the meantime, we’re bickering over teaching to the test, and if we should bring back Latin or not. We’ve found a shortcut around evolutionary learning. Teaching needs to adjust accordingly. So, why aren’t we?
