21st Century Learning Initiative

The illiterate of the 21st century will not be those who cannot read or write,

but those who cannot learn, unlearn and relearn.

- Alvin Toffler

Robert G. Hensaw wrote in A Singular Vision for a Disparate Future: Technology Adoption Patterns in Higher Learning Through 2035, "Of all the variables likely to impact technology-adoption decisions in higher education over the next 25 years, perhaps none is more important than the decisions that traditional institutions are making right now about their future roles and missions. A head start will not ensure success in an increasingly competitive environment, but those engaged in the hard work of integrating continuous innovation into established institutional cultures will be in a stronger position to reach new students and provide new learning experiences."

In times of rapid change, the learners inherit the earth, while the learned find themselves

beautifully equipped to deal with a world that no longer exists.
