The 21st Century Classroom: Ideals and Goals (Bay room)
"The illiterate of the 21st century will not be those who cannot read and write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn, and relearn." -Alvin Toffler The core skill for future-proofing is learning itself, but our schools never seem to teach us how to learn, focussing instead entrely on data that are increasingly obsolete before their delivery. Sharon T. Gaffney, Kevin Gerard, Patrick W McKinnion, Tiffany Moon, Michael Underwood

Friday, Sept 29th, 2006 8:00PM
Is Information Pollution Contaminating Our World? (Bay room)
Between listservs, web pages, usenet, AM radio, international shortwave radio (including those "Voice of America" broadcasts we're not supposed to listen to inside the US), "utility" transmissions including Weather radio, newspapers from around the world, hobby publications and newsletters, broadcast TV, cable TV, satellite TV, satellite radio, "zines," actual magazines, wall posters and the latest graffiti on the dumpster out back, we are immersed in information. Is too much available? Is too much shoved at us? Who benefits, and who loses? Patrick W McKinnion, Adina Sobo, Janet Tait, Brad Tyler

Your last panel is Friday at 8:00 that means you can catch a red-eye and make it to Angels Anniversary, right? :D

Those sound like two interesting panels, especially the first one.

I want to hear how the information pollution panel went -- this is a topic I frequently think about.
