• The top ten in-demand jobs in 2010 did not exist in 2004
• We are preparing students for jobs that don’t yet exist
• Using technologies that haven’t been invented
• In order to solve problems we don’t even know are problems yet.
• In a world that is increasingly globalised
• Where interactions with other cultures, other languages and other ways of doing things will be the norm
• Where the ability to move smoothly between and among these contexts will differentiate those who are successful.

Technology changes the way the world works. As technology evolves, so must the skill sets of those who use it. In order to remain competitive tomorrow, today’s students need to develop techniques that readily adapt to changes as they occur. http://www.ncrel.org/engauge/skills/engauge21st.pdf
