Allow for engagement with real world right now
“ I think we should be allowed to use cell phones and IPODS in school. If it is going to be shoved in our faces left and right, how could you ignore it? By integrating websites such as this one into our education, we are not only saving trees, but benefiting from one anothers ideas. This website allows kids who are shy or quiet or even mute to share their opinions. But that's just my opinion... “

20. Students Must Be… “ Learners, Creators and Communicators to meet
the demands of the next century- Learners in the
sense that they must view education as a lifelong
process and develop a passion for continuous
learning; Creators who not only have the measure
of discipline found in our current workforce but
display independent and innovative thinking; and
Communicators who are effective team players,
able to articulate their ideas confidently.”
