I like this long post from Vicki Davis. "so much of what we teach in schools isn't the answers on a test. It answers questions like 'What is my purpose in life?' 'How do I make friends?' and 'How can I help my team be stronger.' Questions that aren't asked on a test but are essential to living a good life. These questions aren't answered between the ears but within the heart." The knowledge is pretty much irrelevant. Not because we don't need it, but there will always be knowledge, the knowledge always changes, and if we need to, we can always look it up. "These days, we need to build another kind of fire. A fire that sparks the joy of learning. The joy of the opportunities that await us sparked by some of the most powerful tools ever invented."
