For the first time in human history, we are living in an age where the youth of our nation know more about society's cutting-edge tools than the adults charged with passing society's technical and cultural knowledge on to them.

We need to spend a little less time teaching students how to take standardized tests and a lot more time developing their critical faculties, so they will be able to solve life's problems, profi t from challenging situations, and understand the increasingly complex world they must ken at an earlier and earlier age.
