- 8. THE FLAT WORLD AND EDUCATION BY LINDA DARLING-HAMMOND At least 70% of US jobs now require specialized knowledge and skills, as compared to only 5% at the dawn of the century when our current system of schooling was established. The top 10 in-demand jobs projected for 2010 did not exist in 2004. At a time when three-quarters of the fastest growing occupations require post-secondary education, our college participation rates have slipped from 1st in the world to 16th and only one-third of our young people receive a college education. Only 1 in 10 low-income kindergartners becomes a college graduate. At a time when high school dropouts are unlikely to be able to secure any job at all, our high school graduation rates--stuck at about 70%--have dropped from first in the world to the bottom half of industrialized nations. At a time when advances in science and technology fuel economic growth in East Asian and European nations, our students rank near the bottom of industrialized countries in math and science achievement. At a time when children of color comprise a majority in most urban districts, and will be a majority in the nation as a whole by 2025, we face pernicious achievement gaps that fuel inequality, shortchanging our young people and our nation.

DID YOU KNOW California students who participated in afterschool programs for 7 or more months demonstrated improvements in math scores that were 2.5 times greater than found statewide. “High quality afterschool programs don’t just keep children away from trouble. In today’s educational world, where the expected level of achievement keeps rising, afterschool opportunities provide the extra time and help that many children need.” - Inez Tenenbaum, South Carolina State Superintendent of Education
- 17. CHANGING THE PARADIGM The future for the American Dream is not the materialist coma that Edward Albee parodied in the 1960s, for which we're now receiving the check. It has to be the wide awake dream of people like Martin Luther King -- a passionate vision of social equality and personal possibility, of economic responsibility and cultural respect. Realizing this dream means thinking in radically different ways about ourselves and our children, about our relationships with the earth itself and about the billions of other people who are clinging to it with us. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/sir-ken-robinson/transform- education-yes-w_b_157014.html
