Instead, we  foresee a world of learning where:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Education centers on the needs of learners, not those of  institutions. Teaching is tailored to an individual student\u2019s needs and  abilities.<\/li>\n<li>Learners take charge of their education. Students and families seek  out information and experiences from an array of sources rather than  depending on schools to direct their learning.<\/li>\n<li>Children gain 21st-century knowledge and skills \u2013 how to make  decisions, solve problems and create solutions \u2013 through hands-on  experiences that cross subject areas and are connected to the real  world.<\/li>\n<li>Success is judged through a wide array of measures that account for  different learning styles and assess capabilities and progress, not  simply acquisition of knowledge.<\/li>\n<li>All learners have easy access to technology and other tools that  open doors to information and knowledge.<\/li>\n<li>Learners are supported in all parts of their lives, with physical,  emotional and social health being nurtured alongside intellectual  growth.<\/li>\n<li>Teachers are more than content specialists. The teaching profession  diversifies to include such roles as learning coaches, classroom  coordinators, cognitive specialists, resource managers and community  liaisons.<\/li>\n<li>Learning isn\u2019t limited to a physical place or time of day, but is  mobile and constant, with wireless technologies allowing learning  anywhere and anytime.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230; Envisioning a World of Learning &#8212; from blog.futureofed.org by Katherine Prince The launch of KnowledgeWorks\u2019 new website has provided us with an occasion to articulate more precisely what we mean when we say that we want to transform education in the US from a world of schooling to a world\u00a0of learning.\u00a0 Here\u2019s an extract [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[113,343,347,32,35,46,69],"tags":[627,614,296,56,585,4,70,348,375],"class_list":["post-6419","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-21st-century","category-education","category-education-reform","category-education-technology","category-game-changing-environment","category-k-12-related","category-personalizedcustomized-learning","tag-21st-century","tag-change","tag-customized-learning","tag-educational-technology","tag-game-changing-environment","tag-k-12","tag-personalized-learning","tag-reform","tag-roles"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/danielschristian.com\/learning-ecosystems\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6419","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/danielschristian.com\/learning-ecosystems\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/danielschristian.com\/learning-ecosystems\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/danielschristian.com\/learning-ecosystems\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/danielschristian.com\/learning-ecosystems\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6419"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"http:\/\/danielschristian.com\/learning-ecosystems\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6419\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6424,"href":"http:\/\/danielschristian.com\/learning-ecosystems\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6419\/revisions\/6424"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/danielschristian.com\/learning-ecosystems\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6419"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/danielschristian.com\/learning-ecosystems\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6419"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/danielschristian.com\/learning-ecosystems\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6419"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
