Learning to Change Changing to Learn video

We first learned at MSMC that teachers are to prepare students with the skills needed for the real world. Technology is simple a new skill used by society. From listenin to the speakers it sounds like a new form of vocational training. When I was in highschool there was two basic paths. One focused on academics to prepare you for college the other boces that prepared you for the trades. Many technology jobs are simply the new trades workers. So instead of auto shop and wood shop, we are adding computorized architectual design. So are we as teachers our we preparing them for college or a trade, like in the past I think it is a little bit of both.
