21st Century Learning and Teaching

I hadn't heard Fuller's realisation previously, but it does put some sense into the world, and can be utilised across education and many other channels.

The article is a very interesting one as it brings up a very good point. Education is a a vital part of society as it develops better individuals and prepares the future of the country. The key idea of this article is that the K-12 education system does not key in on what each student is best as and prepare them for a career they would look into and excel in. Instead, we do a general education with your "core classes" such as math, english/reading, science, and social studies. I personally find that way of education contradicting as the standardized testing being issued nationwide through Common Core is named "Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers" so you would think we key in on what students feel they will go into as a career. This idea that K-12 education could be bettered by keying in on a student's strengths is a rather good one. Rather than producing the "well-rounded" student that knows endless fats about subjects not needed for their career, they excel at their future career, whether it be medical, economic, political, or anything in the world.
