DESCRIPTION
Why CLASSROOMS need to change? The CLASSROOM - as we know it today - has changed little since the Stone Age. Till now the Socratic method of teaching was adequate but now, we have entered the digital age. Technology proliferates quickly and by end-2014 there will be ~2.5 billion smart mobile devices. If we look at the workplace there has been a constant and an increasing shift towards knowledge based jobs in a high tech global economy. The classroom needs to adapt to the changes in the workplace and to prepare the students for future jobs in a new high-tech global economy. This requires development of critical skills for future jobs. Classrooms need to gear up for this change.

The top jobs in the future don't exist today. Students should be prepared for:
- jobs that don't yet exist, - using technologies that haven't been
invented, - in order to solve problems we don't even
know are problems yet.
