This article touches upon the changes in jobs, businesses, and the economy as a whole. Jobs are shifting from manufacturing to services. Businesses are changing and workers are receiving increased amounts of responsibility. Moreover new skills and new jobs are being demanded. Furthermore, the gap between the lowest- and highest-performing students needs to decrease. All in all, the quality of teaching needs to be much better. I feel it all goes back to the basics and the fundamentals. Being able to work in teams, communicate effectively, think critically, and problem solve. This can begin to be taught at a very young age to help students increase academic achievement and personal responsibility in the future. When it is time for the real world, as teachers we need to develop conscientious and productive members of society in this constantly changing economy.
