3、 awakens in the 21 century after a hundred-year sleep and is, of course, utterly bewildered by what he sees. Men and women dash about, talking to small metal devices attached to their ears. Young people sit at home on sofas, moving miniature athletes around on electronic screens. Older folk defy dea
4、th and disability with devices in their chests and with hips made of metal and plastic. Airports, hospitals, shopping walls every place Rip goes just baffles him. But when he finally walks into a schoolroom, the old man knows exactly where he is. “This is a school,“ he declares. “We used to have the
5、se back in 1906. Only now the blackboards are green.“American schools arent exactly frozen in time, but considering the pace of change in other areas of life, our public schools tend to feel like throwbacks. Kids spend much of the day as their grandparents once did: sitting in rows, listening to tea
6、chers lecture, scribbling notes by hand, and reading from textbooks that are out of date by the time they are printed. A yawning gap separates the world inside the schoolhouse from the world outside.For the past five years, the national conversation on education has focused on reading scores, math t
7、ests and closing the “achievement gap“ between social classes. This is not a story about that conversation. This is a story about the big public conversation the nationi is not having about education, the one that will ultimately determine not merely whether some fraction of our children get “left b
8、ehind“ but also whether an entire generation of kids will fail to make the grade in the global economy because they cant think their way through abstract problems, work in teams, distinguish good information from bad or speak a language other than English.Right now were aiming too low. Competency in
9、 reading and math is just the minimum. Scientific and technical skills are, likewise, utterly necessary but insufficient. Todays economy demands not only a high-level competence in the traditional academic disciplines but also what might be called 21st century skills.Heres what they are:Knowing more
10、 about the world.Thinking outside the box.Becoming smarter about new sources of information.Developing good people skills.Real Knowledge in the Google EraLearn the names of all the rivers in South America. That was the assignment given to Deborah Stipeks daughter Meredith in school, and her morn, wh
11、os dean of the Sianford University School of Education, was not impressed. “Thats silly,“ Stipek told her daughter. “Tell your teacher that if you need to know anything besides the Amazon, you can look it up on Google.“ Any number of old-school assignment memorizing the battles of the Civil War or t
12、he periodic table of the elements now seem faintly absurd. That kind of information, which is poorly retained unless you routinely use it, is available at a keystroke. Still, few would argue that an American child shouldnt learn the causes of the Civil War or understand how the periodic table reflec
13、ts the atomic structure and properties of the elements. As school critic E.D.Hirsch Jr. points out in his book, The Knowledge Deficit, kids need a substantial fund of information just to make sense of reading materials beyond the grade-school level. Without mastering the fundamental building blocks
14、of math, science or history, complex concepts are impossible.Many analysts believe that to achieve the right balance between such core knowledge and what educators call “portable skills“ critical thinking, making connections between ideas and knowing how to keep on learning the U.S. curriculum needs
15、 to become more like that of Singapore, Belgium and Sweden, whose students outperform American students on math and science tests. Classes in these countries dwell on key concepts that are taught in depth and in careful sequence, as opposed to a succession of forgettable details so often served in U
16、.S. classrooms. Textbooks and tests support this approach. “Countries from Germany to Singapore have extremely small textbooks that focus on the most powerful and generative ideas,“ says Roy Pea, co-director of the Stanford Center for Innovations in Learning. These might be the key rules in math, th
17、e laws in science or the relationship between supply and demand in economics. Americas thick textbooks, by contrast, tend to go through a mind-numbing stream of topics and subtopics in an attempt to address a vast range of educational standards.Depth over breadth and the ability to leap across disci
18、plines are exactly what teachers aim for at the Henry Ford Academy, a public charter school in Dearborn, Michigan. Last fall, 10th-graders in Charles Dershimers science class began a project that combines concepts from earth science, chemistry, business and design. After reading about Nikes effort t
19、o develop a more environmentally friendly sneakers, students had to choose a consumer product, analyze and explain its environmental impact and then develop a plan for reengineering it to reduce pollution costs without sacrificing its commercial appeal. Says Dershimers: “Its a challenge for them and
20、 for me.“A New Kind of LiteracyThe juniors in Bill Strouds class are attracted by a documentary called Loose Change playing on a small TV screen at the Baccalaureate School for Global Education, in urban Astoria, N.Y. The film uses 9/11 films and interviews with building engineers and Twin Towers su
21、rvivors to make an oddly compelling case that interior explosions unrelated to the impact of the airplanes brought down the World Trade Center on that fateful day. Afterward, the student an ethnic mix of New Yorkers with their own 9/11 memories dive into a discussion about the nature of truth.Throug
22、hout the year, the class will examine news reports, websites, history books, blogs, and even pop songs. The goal is to teach kids to be sharp consumers of information and to research, formulate and defend their own views, says Stroud, who is the founder and principal of the four-year-old public scho
23、ol.Classes like these, which teach key aspects of information literacy, remain rare in public education, but more and more universities and employers say they are needed as the world grows ever more flooded with information of variable quality. Last year, in response to demand from colleges, the Edu
24、cational Testing Service unveiled a new, computer-based exam designed to measure information-and-communication-technology literacy. A study of the test with 6,200 high school seniors and college freshmen found that only half could correctly judge the objectivity of a website. “Kids tend to go to Goo
25、gle and cut and paste a research report together,“ says Terry Egan, who led the team that developed the new test. “We kind of assumed this generation was so comfortable with technology that they know how to use it for research and deeper thinking,“ says Egan. “But if theyre not taught these skills,
26、they dont necessarily pick them up.“A Dose of RealityTeachers need not fear that they will be made outdated. They will, however, feel increasing pressure to bring their methods along with the curriculum in line with the way the modern world works. That means putting a greater emphasis on teaching ki
27、ds to collaborate and solve problems in small groups and apply what theyve learned in the real world. Besides, research shows that kids learn better in that way than with the old chalk- and-talk approach.At suburban Farmington High School in Michigan, the engineering-technology department functions
28、like an engineering firm, with teachers as project managers, a Ford Motor Co. engineer as a consultant and students working in teams. The principles of physics, chemistry and engineering are taught through activities that fill the hallways with the noise of nailing, sawing and chattering. The result
29、: the kids learn to apply academic principles to the real world, think strategically and solve problems.Such lessons also teach students to show respect for others as well as to be punctual, responsible and work well in teams. Those skills were badly missing in recently hired high school graduates,
30、according to a survey of over 400 human-resource professionals conducted by the Partnership for 21st Century Skills. “Kids dont know how to shake your hand at graduation,“ says Rudolph Crew, superintendent of the Miami-Dade school system. Deportment (举止风度), he notes, used to be on the report card. S
