Teachers can no longer be the font of wisdom in a world where all human

knowledge is distributed into the hands of everyone

Educators need to become curators• Hyper-connected world is awash with content measured in exabytes,

or billions of gigabytes • Learners are placing greater value on knowing where to find

information rather than on knowing the information themselves• Solutions to problems are not from experts but from the wisdom of

networks• Social learning is more important than formal learning in distributed

networked work environments
