Creating a Learning Revolution
[1] Children are the future. If we hope to solve the world's major problems – achieving world peace,
healthy lives, economic development, and global sustainability – we must provide richer learning
opportunities for the world's children. An educated and creative population is, without a doubt, the best path
to global health, wealth, and peace.
[5] But throughout today's world, educational practices are woefully outdated. Even as scientific and
technological advances have radically transformed agriculture, medicine, and industry, the way children
learn has remained largely unchanged, based on ideas inherited from previous centuries.
New digital technologies are now providing an historic opportunity for fundamental and global-scale
changes ∈ children's learning and education. Just as advances ∈ biotechnologies made possible the "green
[10] revolution" ∈ agriculture, digital technologies are making possible a "learning revolution" ∈ education. We
believe that these new digital technologies can (and should) transform not only how children learn, but also
what children learn, and who they learn with.
• How children learn. Digital technologies can enable children to become more active and
independent learners, taking charge of their own learning through direct exploration, expression, and
[15] experience. The focus shifts from "being taught" to "learning."
• What children learn. Much of what children learn ∈ schools today was designed for the era of
paper-and-pencil. With new digital technologies, children can undertake projects (and learn
concepts) that were seen as too complex for children ∈ the pre-digital era.
• Who children learn with. Global connectedness can enable new “knowledge-building
[20] communities” ∈ which children (and adults) around the globe collaborate on projects and learn from
one another. These efforts require new multicultural, multilingual, and multimodal approaches to
learning.
