My Take On Minds On Fire



In conclusion I have agreed with the author as it relates to where learning is headed and as it relates to where the workforce will evolve. The retirement ideals are gone and now a career will be driven by a type of apprenticeship that will be completive based on the ability of an individual to retain information and model the processes in a digital environment. I would to think of our world evolving as it relates to specialties and my ideal would be to utilize this knowledge to find out the answers to complex problems in our world as well as coming up with cures to diseases. In the end digital natives will be able to identify with their passion and I would like to believe that this world will be a better place.
