Description

How We Will Learn in the 21st Century is a book about change and technology.

Judy Breck, author of The Wireless Age, spent some four years finding and organizing web pages spanning all disciplines.

Dubbing the Internet a 'golden swamp,' she describes how the Internet has unified so many previous disparate threads of knowledge, including libraries, museums, laboratories, archives, and collections both academic and private.

Breck sees the power that so much combined knowledge represents as coming with enormous responsibility, and she divides that responsibility into three areas.

First, today's teacher must know how to find the necessary information.

Second, he or she must know how to powerfully express it, via a web page.

Last, there must be a concerted effort among educators to link academic sites together on the Internet to form a 'World's Fair' of knowledge.

Only by accomplishing these things can teachers and students fully realize the wealth of knowledge of the Internet.
