Did You Know . . .

Page 3: Emerging      Technologies

If you’re one in a million in China . . .

Page 4: Emerging      Technologies

There are 1,300 people just like you.

Page 5: Emerging      Technologies

In India, there are 1,100 people just like you.

Page 6: Emerging      Technologies

The 25% of the population in China with the highest IQ’s . . .

Page 7: Emerging      Technologies

Is greater than the total population of North America.

Page 8: Emerging      Technologies

In India, it’s the top 28%.

Page 9: Emerging      Technologies

Translation for teachers:They have more honors kids

than we have kids.

Page 10: Emerging      Technologies

Did you know . . .

Page 11: Emerging      Technologies

China will soon become the number one English speaking

country in the world.

Page 12: Emerging      Technologies

If you took every single job in the U.S. today and shipped it to

China . . .

Page 13: Emerging      Technologies

China would still have a labor surplus.

Page 14: Emerging      Technologies

During the course of this 8 minute presentation . . .

Page 15: Emerging      Technologies

• 60 babies will be born in the U.S.

• 244 babies will be born in China.

• 351 babies will be born in India.

Page 16: Emerging      Technologies

The U.S. Department of Labor estimates that today’s learner

will have 10-14 jobs . . .

Page 17: Emerging      Technologies

By the age of 38.

Page 18: Emerging      Technologies

According to the U.S. Department of Labor . . .

Page 19: Emerging      Technologies

1 out of 4 workers today is working for a company he has

been employed by for less than one year.

Page 20: Emerging      Technologies

More than 1 out of 2 are working at their current job for less than

5 years.

Page 21: Emerging      Technologies

The top 10 in-demand jobs in 2010 didn’t exist in 2004.

Page 22: Emerging      Technologies

Question for teachers:How do we prepare our students for 14 different jobs and several

different careers?

Page 23: Emerging      Technologies

We are currently preparing students for jobs that don’t

yet exist . . .

Page 24: Emerging      Technologies

using technologies that haven’t been invented . . .

Page 25: Emerging      Technologies

in order to solve problems we don’t even know are problems yet.

Question for Administrators?How do we do this?

Page 27: Emerging      Technologies

Name this country . . .

Page 28: Emerging      Technologies

• Richest in the World

• Largest Military

• Center of world business and finance

• Strongest education system

• World center of innovation and invention

• Currency the world standard of value

• Highest standard of living

Page 29: Emerging      Technologies

England.

Page 30: Emerging      Technologies

In 1900.

Page 31: Emerging      Technologies

Do you perceive a trend?

Page 32: Emerging      Technologies

Did you know . . .

Page 33: Emerging      Technologies

The U.S. is 20th in the world in broadband Internet penetration.(Luxembourg just passed us.)

Page 34: Emerging      Technologies

In 2002 alone Nintendo invested more than $140 million in

research and development.

Page 35: Emerging      Technologies

The U.S. Federal Government spent less than half as much on

Research and Innovation.

Page 36: Emerging      Technologies

1 out of every 8 couples married in the U.S. last year

met online.

Page 37: Emerging      Technologies

There are over 100 million registered users of MySpace.

(August 2006)

Page 38: Emerging      Technologies

The average MySpace page is visited 30 times a day.

Page 39: Emerging      Technologies

Did you know . . .

Page 40: Emerging      Technologies

We are living in exponential times.

Page 41: Emerging      Technologies

There are over 2.7 billion searches performed on Google

each month.

Page 42: Emerging      Technologies

To whom were these questions addressed B.G.?(Before Google)

Page 43: Emerging      Technologies

The number of text messages sent and received every day

exceeds the population of the planet.

Page 44: Emerging      Technologies

By their 21st birthday, digital kids will have sent/received 250,000

emails/IMs, spent 10,000 hours on the phone, and watched 20,000

hours of TV (with 500,000 commercials).

Page 45: Emerging      Technologies

Kids use electronic media 6.5 hours a day into which they

pack 8.5 hours of exposure to that media.

How?

Page 46: Emerging      Technologies

They multitask.

Page 47: Emerging      Technologies

There are about 540,000 words in the English language . . .

Page 48: Emerging      Technologies

About 5 times as many as during Shakespeare’s time.

Page 49: Emerging      Technologies

More than 3,000 new books are published . . .

Page 50: Emerging      Technologies

Daily.

Page 51: Emerging      Technologies

It’s estimated that a week’s worth of New York Times . . .

Page 52: Emerging      Technologies

Contains more information than a person was likely to come

across in a lifetime in the 18th century.

Page 53: Emerging      Technologies

Yet print newspapers will be extinct by the first quarter of

2043.

Page 54: Emerging      Technologies

It’s estimated that 1.5 exabytes (that’s 1.5 x 1018) of unique new information will be generated

worldwide this year.

Page 55: Emerging      Technologies

That’s estimated to be more than in the previous 5,000 years.

Page 56: Emerging      Technologies

the amount of new technical information is doubling every 2

years.

Page 57: Emerging      Technologies

That means for a student starting a four-year technical or

college degree . . .

Page 58: Emerging      Technologies

Half of what they learn in their first year of study will be

outdated by their third year of study.

Page 59: Emerging      Technologies

It’s predicted to double every 72 hours by 2010.

Page 60: Emerging      Technologies

Predictions are thate-paper will be cheaper than real

paper.

Page 61: Emerging      Technologies

And with the rapid and exponential growth of

knowledge, does it make sense to publish it in a book?

Page 62: Emerging      Technologies

Third generation fiber optics has recently been separately tested

by NEC and Alcatel . . .

Page 63: Emerging      Technologies

That pushes 10 trillion bits per second down one strand of fiber.

Page 64: Emerging      Technologies

That’s 1,900 CDs or 150 million simultaneous phone calls every

second.

Page 65: Emerging      Technologies

It’s currently tripling about every 6 months and is expected to do so for at least the next 20 years.

Page 66: Emerging      Technologies

The fiber is already there; switches are just being

improved on the ends. . . which means the marginal cost of

these improvements is effectively $0.

Page 67: Emerging      Technologies

47 million laptops were shipped worldwide last year.

Page 68: Emerging      Technologies

The $100 laptop project is expecting to ship between 50

and 100 million laptops a year to children in underdeveloped

countries.

Page 69: Emerging      Technologies

Predictions are that by 2013 a supercomputer will be built that

exceeds the computation capability of the Human

Brain . . .

Page 70: Emerging      Technologies

By 2023, a $1,000 computer will exceed the capabilities of the

Human Brain . . .

Page 71: Emerging      Technologies

First grader Abby will be just 23 years old and beginning her

(first) career . . .

Page 72: Emerging      Technologies

And while technical predictions farther out than about 15 years

are hard to do . . .

Page 73: Emerging      Technologies

Predictions are that by 2049 a $1,000 computer will exceed the computational capabilities of the

human race.

Page 74: Emerging      Technologies

Number of iPod sold in 3Q 2006 = 8,100,000

Page 75: Emerging      Technologies

Up from 304,000 exactly three years ago

Page 76: Emerging      Technologies

College freshmen identify the iPod as more “in” than

beer.

Page 77: Emerging      Technologies

What does it all mean?

Page 78: Emerging      Technologies

Preparing our children for a future that we cannot even describe requires of educators more than we have ever expected before.
