How 21st Century Thinking Is Just Different
- - By Leonard Miller
- this world full of information abundance, our minds are constantly challenged to react to data, and often in a way that doesn’t just observe, but interprets. Subsequently, we unknowingly “spin” everything to avoid cognitive dissonance
- Instead, we might consider constant reflection guided by important questions as a new way to learn in the presence of information abundance.
Information Abundance
There is more information available to any student with a smartphone than an entire empire would have had access to three thousand years ago
- Truth may not change, but information does. And in the age of social media, it divides and duplicates in a frenzied kind of digital mitosis.
Specifically, new habits of mind.
Persisting.
Managing impulsivity.
Responding with awe.
Questioning.
Innovating.
Thinking interdependently.
- learn
- If the 20th century model was to measure the accuracy and ownership of information, the 21st century’s model is form and interdependence
- learning options today don’t just abound, they dwarf formal learning institutions in every way but clout with the power-holders—parents, teachers, deans, and curriculum designers
- Habits, by nature, are reflexive, accessible, and adaptable–not unlike knowledge. This is a can’t-miss point. Internalized and reflexive cognitive patterns that are called upon intrinsically, and transfer seamlessly.
- all else, the 21st century
- learner
- Above
- needs for self-knowledge and authentic local placement, two very broad ideas that come from patient thinking
- Persistence. Managing Impulsivity. Responding with awe.
- Old learning forms focused on the thinker rather than the thoughts, the source rather than the information, and correctly citing that source over understanding what made that information worth extracting
- The tone of thinking in the 21st century should not be hushed nor gushing, defiant nor assimilating, but simply interdependent, conjured to function on a relevant scale within a much larger human and intellectual ecology, one that exposes itself daily across twitter, facebook, and a billion smartphone screens.
The Google Glass feature no one is talking about — Creative Good
- Google Glass experience is not the user experience – it’s the experience of everyone else. The experience of being a citizen, in public, is about to change.
