Imagine you could have a skill where--in any given conversation with colleagues, clients, or subordinates--you could be keenly aware of, and even experience, their feelings and thoughts.
Sounds like some X-Men-like psychic superpower right? Well, what if I told you that anyone can have this uncanny ability and use its strength and charm to have successful conversations?
Well, you can. The superpower I refer to is called empathy.
But this skill--and it is a learned skill available to anyone--is often misunderstood because there are variations of it. I'll get to the science of it shortly. Via The Learning Factor

Infographics is a new kind of visual literacy. They are a kind of visual summary of information that would take a reader hours to process

Been loving infographics and looking for a good way to incorporate these. Hoping for an app that would make them easily. We'll see what this has to say...

Wireless vehicle networks could make driving safer and more efficient, but the cost of deployment will be significant.
The phrase “vehicle-to-vehicle communications” might currently mean little more than a few choice words hurled through an open car window. In a few years, however, it could be synonymous with technology that makes driving safer, less polluting, and certainly less antagonistic. Via Sigalon

"To understand the extent to which the skills taught in education systems around the world are changing, and whether they meet the needs of employers and society more widely, Google commissioned research from The Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU). The EIU surveyed senior business executives, teachers and students." Via Beth Dichter

Preparing our students with the necessary skills for post-secondary career and college is critical, but especially for our poverty students. Too often, school is the only venue to provide these thinking, collaboration, and problem solving skills. However, many poverty schools under the pressure of standardized testing are stuck in a remediation routine of filling gaps in content, reading, and math. We must provide time for teachers to collaborate and plan integrated lessons that integrate these higher level thinking skills into their content areas.

What skills do learners need today to be prepared to be a leader as they move through school and into careers? Google commissioned a study and this post provides a short video that discusses key findings as well as a link to the final report, Driving the Skills Agenda: Preparing Students for the Future. The Executive Summary provides a number of key findings, including the ones listed below. (The text below is quoted from the report.) * Problem solving, team working and communication are the skills that are currently most in demand in the workplace. * Education systems are not providing enough of the skills that students and the workplace need. * Some students are taking it into their own hands to make up for deficiencies within the education system. * Technology is changing teaching, but education systems are keeping up with the transformation rather than leading it. The full report provides additional information, including a number of visuals as well as case studies. As educators it is important that we consider the skills our learners will need in the future, and this report provides insight into some of what will be needed.
