“Although our grammar schools are teaching a whole generation computer language to adjust to the technological needs of a Stage II [post survival-focused] society, we have neglected to teach this generation relationship language and conflict resolution skills to address the social and psychological needs of a Stage II society. And when it is taught, in countries like Germany, although called social competence it focuses on workplace teamwork - still on survival, breadwinner oriented work goals.” NeedsStillsCountryWholeSchoolLanguageSocialGoalTeachGenerationsTeachingStageTaughtSkillsConflictComputerSurvivalFocusedPsychologicalPostsGermanyAddressesResolutionTeamworkTechnologicalWorkplaceGrammarCompetenceNeglectedThis GenerationConflict ResolutionComputer LanguageGrammar SchoolBreadwinnerPsychological Needs Author:Warren Farrell
“I went and I started teaching computers to young kids, to fifth graders at first, later to sixth, seventh, eighth and ninth graders. I also started teaching teachers. And that was back in the days when we'd wire up the labs ourselves and crimp on the Ethernet connectors and then we would.” FirstsKidsYoungTeacherTeachingComputerFifthWireLabsConnectorsFifth Graders Author:Steve Wozniak

“Whether we're fighting climate change or going to space, everything is moved forward by computers, and we don't have enough people who can code. Teaching young people to code early on can help build skills and confidence and energize the classroom with learning-by-doing opportunities. I learned how to fly a hot air balloon when I was 30,000 feet up and my life was in the balance: you can learn skills at any age but why wait when we can teach everyone to code now!” PeopleEnoughHelpingAgeYoungFightingOpportunityWaitingSpaceTeachAirFeetTeachingBalanceSkillsComputerHotMovedClimateClimate ChangeCodeClassroomBalloonsLearning By DoingHot AirAir BalloonsHot Air Balloons Author:Richard Branson
“I don't think it's possible to teach a person to be an artist. But yet, I'm here, and I suppose this is what I'm expected to do. I teach a course called graphic narrative and one called digital studios, but no matter the topic, the basic principle underlying my "method" of teaching is that a properly prepared artist/creator must simply know everything. Not just how to draw, but how to see. Not just how to use a computer program, but what the word "penultimate" means. And the shape and orientation of a goat's pupil. And where Kentucky and Chile are, at least approximately.” ThinkingMeanArtistTeachTeachingComputerProgramGraphic Author:Phoebe Gloeckner
