In the the article " At the Interface of School and Work," Theodore Lewis discusses the changes he feels need to be made in order for companies to shift with the times. He explains how the way people work is changing and going from " hands to minnds." This means that workers brains are being more relied upon rather than their braun. The times are changing and therefore the industry is changing. "He contends that knowledge has become the primary factor of production, superseding labour and capital, and further, that "Value is created now by productivity and innovation," both applications of knowldege to work." With this iit is apparent that education must change as well. It is not so much about the material anymore but more so how to interpret and expand upon the material. Some teachers are good at doing this, that is truly making the students expand upon what is being presented and even question it . But sadly, tgis is not true for all some still rattle of information with no means of letting the students explore. This will no longer work, with the internet information is endless, but it is the capability of interpreting this information in to knowledge that has become invalauable. This is the skill that must be taught, this is what is important in this day in age. I feel that this way of worl and learning will be implemented over time, but large changes like this occur slowly which will be its setback.
