Rebels on the edges<\/strong><\/a> — from Harold Jarche<\/p>\n

Excerpt (emphasis DSC):<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Today we are a witnessing a similar shift, as human information processing is being drastically surpassed by integrated technology systems. This has been called the second economy<\/strong><\/a>. I frequently discuss the implications of work automation on what is becoming a post-job economy<\/strong><\/a>. Consider that about 35% of existing jobs have a 85% or greater chance of being automated<\/strong><\/a>. The challenge we face is how to distribute wealth when capital accrues to the few and there is no need to hire as much labour to run that capital.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

…we need to seriously reconsider how value, wealth, and economic independence can be achieved. The key is creativity. \u201cIdentifying the new\u201d will be a critical skill. The creative economy will be led by people testing the limits of all fields of endeavour.<\/strong> <\/span>This will be fueled by big (and distributed) data, in conjunction with networked people. Innovation will be so essential that it may no longer be discussed. Innovation and creativity will be the new literacies.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

This is scary because most of our schools and other institutions do not foster innovation and creativity. I think many people will be left on the sidelines of the creative economy until we develop support systems that can help people tap their innate abilities<\/strong><\/span> that were ignored for much of the past century.<\/p>\n

From DSC:<\/em><\/span>
\nThanks Harold for this valuable posting; a couple of thoughts came to my mind as a result of reading it.<\/span><\/p>\n

I would feel much more settled about things like standardized testing and the Common Core if people could explain to me how such things foster the incredibly important characteristics such as creativity, innovation, teamwork, collaboration (some of the key items amongst the set of soft skills that companies are asking for).\u00a0\u00a0 I just don’t see it.\u00a0 Also, the “A” part of STEAM (S<\/strong>cience, T<\/strong>echnology, E<\/strong>ngineering, A<\/strong>rts,<\/em> & M<\/strong>ath) is hard to measure on a standardized test.<\/span><\/p>\n

We need to provide more choice, more control to students; to provide more chances for them to explore, investigate, and identify their interests and what they might be gifted in.\u00a0 We need to provide more opportunities for students to tap into such gifts, abilities, and passions.
