Thank you.

I want to thank everyone for their help and support.  I appreciated the opportunity to join your discussions and learn from you.  I congratulate the winners for school board and offer them my best wishes.  One of the best parts of the campaign was getting to know more people, make new friends and meet voters.  I promise to continue working for children in the Chapel Hill-Carrboro public schools.

Did You Know? updated

I went back to find the research that supported the video I posted and saw this version.  This is the link.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LHhVWCXmuzE&NR=1.  The supporting research is on http://shifthappens.wikispaces.com/.  As you mention, not all may come true and it may be a scare tactic.  But even if only 50% comes true, it is still important to think about the global economy and what the workplace will be like for our children. I feel strongly that we need to focus on creating life long learners and critical thinkers.    

 

Children need to become critical thinkers and life-long learners

A parent asked me about a comment I made at a forum regarding how our children will change careers often and need to be able to learn, relearn, unlearn and relearn.  Jobs of the future will demand our children be life-long learners and critical thinkers.  As a follow up to that question, I want to share with you this video called "what does this all mean".
