Are the skills needed for working and learning in today's society changing? (admin)
Seely Brown implies that the skills we need to work and learn are changing. Are they?
...John Seely Brown has talked about the new skills kids use in the digital age. He says that today, literacy involves more than just text but also involves image and screen literacy. The new literacy, the one beyond just text and image, is one of information navigation and requires the knowledge of how to navigate through the incredible, confusing, complex information spaces and feel comfortable and located in doing that. So navigation will be a new form of literacy if not the main form of literacy for the 21st century.
