5. What Change Would You Make To The Education System? "To give our children the chance to live out their dreams in a world that's never been more competitive, we will equip tens of thousands of schools, community colleges, and public universities with 21st century classrooms, labs, and libraries,"-- President Obama, January 15, 2009 Mark A. Evans Superintendent, Andover Public Schools Paul Caputo ninth-grade student, North Schuylkill Junior Senior H. S. I would make schools more focused on 21st-century learning skills with engaging, technology-rich and high-quality learning environments. Education would be less focused on lower-level learning, but would use more project- and performance-based learning to measure student growth. I would use tools such as distance learning to teach students more relevant material. Kids will be drawn into a course by knowing they will use what they learn. Then you can keep their attention by using technology to talk to professionals around the world. * Converge Magazine Winter February 2009
