[QUOTE="Kathy813, post: 109545, member: 1967"] Skeeter ~ I didn't take it that way at all. I agree with you 100% about the importance of study skills and the value of becoming a life-long learner. During my master's degree program, I was introduced to a field of study called "Habits of Mind." The authors, Costa and Kallick, identify the following areas as crucial to success in life: Costa and Kallick that these skills must be taught in addition to the core subjects. You can look them up on the Internet if you are interested in pursuing this topic further. There is also a Youtube presentation developed by a teacher about the changing world our children will live in. It is absolutely amazing. [URL='http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pMcfrLYDm2U']Did You Know?[/URL] To me, the rapidly changing technology and the changes it will bring makes it even more important that students get a good foundation in all core subjects and the above habits of mind as we don't know what fields of study or occupations the future may bring. ~Kathy [/QUOTE]
