Bring Education Out of the Agricultural Age into the Conceptual Age
Idea posted June 10, 2009 in Education + Innovation

According to Dan Pink’s book “A Whole New Mind” we are now in what is considered the Conceptual Age, having gone from Agricultural to Industrial to Information ages before. So why is the educational model we have today still “stuck” back in the Agricultural age? I propose that somehow we seriously review how and what our children are being taught because we do not operate on such an indivdual basis out in coporate America.

LincolnGood point. We teach kids what they missed but don’t prepare them for what’s coming in the context of anything that will “stick” with them.
