Stephen Downes

Knowledge, Learning, Community

Marc Prensky knows how to make a big statement. Here's his latest:

"People, In the future, will increasingly mean newly empowered symbiotic human hybrids who can, as individuals and teams, apply the strength of their unique blends of human and technology components to creating new and positive value and solutions to local and global problems.
"The big issue for the world is not to create more or new jobs, but to figure out effective ways for people to be compensated for whatever series of world-improving projects they want and choose to do."

Can't say I disagree with him. See also: The No-Collar Workforce, Deloitte.
