“The future is already here — it’s just not very evenly

distributed.”

William Gibson

1.0 schools cannot teach 3.0 kids.

Kids are people, too.

The thrill of jumping off a cliff by deciding to do so yourself is a high you will never have if someone else pushes you

off of it.

Don’t value what we measure,measure what we value.

Peter Gray

We are so obsessed with measuring things that we think we can measure an education; but we can’t.

If “technology” is the answer, what was the

Digital skills are invisible,and so should technologies

be in schools.

We cannot manage knowledge.

“The network is the learning.”

The future belongs to nerds, geeks, makers, dreamers

and knowmads.

Knowmad Society (2013), p. 18
