Conference Animotos:

As little as we know about the future, for which we are preparing our children, it is clear that it will be a place that is governed by information. Accessing, processing, building with, and communicating that information will be a major part of our daily professional and personal work.
Being literate in this future will certainly involve the ability to read, write, and work with numbers. However, the concept of literacy in the 21st century will be far richer and more comprehensive than the 3 Rs of the one room school house. This enlightening and thought-provoking address will describe how our notions of literacy must expand to address a rapidly changing information landscape where information is networked, digital, and overwhelming.

On October 2, I asked for readers of my blog to post a one sentence comment that they would share with school board members, given ten seconds in an elevator. Needless to say, teachers need more than a ten second elevator speech to do their jobs ;-)
