Into the Driver's Seat

No one knows what the future will hold, and that’s particularly true when it comes to the tech skills that today’s students will need tomorrow. Maybe the coming decades will see us all interfacing with our devices through implanted neural laces! Perhaps we’ll see computers that write their own code and put a generation of aspiring programmers out of work before they’ve even begun their careers!

That doesn’t mean we can’t prepare our students for whatever future lies ahead. By focusing on the basics and helping them understand the fundamental ideas underlying the technology available today, we can provide them a foundation they’ll build on throughout their academic careers and into their life beyond school.
