4 Setting the scene The `Google generation is a popular phrase that refers to a generation of young people, born after 1993, that is growing up in a world dominated by the internet. Most students entering our colleges and universities today are younger than the microcomputer, are more comfortable working on a keyboard than writing in a spiral notebook, and are happier reading from a computer screen than from paper in hand. Constant connectivity being in touch with friends and family at any time and from any place is of utmost Importance * * Jason Frand, The information mindset: Changes in students and implications for higher education, EDUCAUSE Review, March / April 2006, p.15 4
5 The situation facing educators today None of the top 10 jobs that will exist in 2010 exist today *!! Prepare students for jobs that haven t been created!! Using technologies that haven t been invented!! In order to solve problems that don t yet exist. we need to equip students with those concepts that are common to all problems, all technologies, all skills... * former U.S. Education Secretary Richard Riley 5

10 UAE Cabinet releases: Vision Knowledge-based and highly productive economy Innovation, research, science and technology will form the pillars of a knowledge-based, highly productive and competitive economy, driven by entrepreneurs in a business-friendly environment where public and private sectors form effective partnerships Outstanding information and communication infrastructure will network our businesses together and give them a leading edge as they transact and interact with the world. Individual citizens will also reap the benefits of efficient connectedness in their digital lives as they search online for knowledge and the fulfillment of intellectual curiosity. 4 First-rate education All Emiratis will have equal opportunity and access to first-rate education that allows them to develop into well-rounded individuals, enhance their educational attainment, and achieve their true potential, contributing positively to society The UAE will successfully encourage Emiratis to maximize their potential by remaining in school and reaching higher levels of education. School drop-outs rates will fall, university enrolment will rise, and more Emiratis will climb higher up the ladder of learning into post-graduate education. 10
