Defining 21st Century SkillsThe central task of education is to implant a will and a facility for learning; it should produce not learned but learning people. The truly human society is a learning society, where grandparents, parents, and children are students together.

In a time of drastic change it is the learners who inherit the future. The learned usually find themselves equipped to live in a world that no longer exists.

- Eric HofferReflections on the Human Condition, aph. 32 (1973)

“This is a story about the big public conversation the nation is not having about education… whether an entire generation of kids will fail to make the grade in the global economy because

they can’t think their way through abstract problems, work in teams,

distinguish good formation from bad, or speak a language other than English.”

2006
