A: I just heard Charles Fadel's talk at the Learning &the brain conference. You'll find an answer here: https://vimeo.com/50409698
Charles Fadel shares his findings from across many disciplines and groups about what students should learn in order to be prepared for the 21st century.

Looking at the race between technology and education, he urges teachers to consider how best to provide students with higher order skills in order to prepare them for success in the communities and workplaces they will participate in.
