This makes the update processes slow, which opens a window that is exploited to steal information in general and launch targeted attacks in search of confidential data.”

5 Minds For The Future (Howard GARDNER) to understand what the world needs for abilities from students in 21st Century…
- The Disciplinary Mind: the mastery of major schools of thought, including science, mathematics, and history, and of at least one professional craft.
- The Synthesizing Mind: the ability to integrate ideas from different disciplines or spheres into a coherent whole and to communicate that integration to others.
- The Creating Mind: the capacity to uncover and clarify new problems, questions and phenomena.
- The Respectful Mind: awareness of and appreciation for differences among human beings and human groups.
- The Ethical Mind: fulfillment of one’s responsibilities as a worker and as a citizen.
I have given courses to adult people for 10 years and I used Group-Working, Group-Learning for ICT-Courses! The learners who had the BEST knowledge helped the others and an exchange of knowledge was made, so the whole group's knowledge became BETTER and ALL had big fun while learning! I observed it while being the coach where I intervened ONLY when I saw the opportunity to do so and/or when there was something new to teach... 96% success, who can do better ;)

Over the past 20 years, I have studied and worked with educators who have aspired to be change leaders in a wide variety of schools in the US and elsewhere.
The most effective of these change leaders – whether they are classroom teachers, principals, or systems leaders – share a number of common practices. Via Ana Cristina Pratas
Gust MEES's insight:
First, successful change leaders clearly articulate the need for change to a variety of audiences in ===> ways that are intellectually coherent and emotionally compelling. <===
The ability to do this requires that change leaders immerse themselves into radically different worlds.

by Marilyn Price-Mitchell, Ph.D. This article makes the case that good grades matter far less in school than developing internal strengths like critical thinking, compassion, and curiosity.
Even for children who naturally perform well on academic tests, a good grade is only one measurement of success.
===> A few things that school testing cannot measure include: <===
- Open-Mindedness - Effort - Social & Emotional Intelligence - Critical Thinking - Initiative - Creativity - Collaboration - Curiosity - Respect - Kindness - Capacity to love - Honesty - Compassion
Internal strengths, like those listed above, are far more important to a life of success and well-being than whether a child earns an “A” on an Algebra exam or are accepted to a top-rated university. In fact, many tests only measure a student’s ability to produce a correctly memorized answer.
Gust MEES's insight:
I completely agree with Marilyn... and the mentioned points should get (more) integrated in any schools...
