  • Move all rote curriculum to the web for immediate student review and to free teachers from the tedium of delivery and assessment chores of this kind of content
  • Design more motivating and rigorous assignments
  • Redefine literacy to include web literacy and global communication literacy
  • Shift the balance of control between learners and the organization of school
  • Redefine education from the child to the whole family
  • Redefine the job description of students to be content producers as well as consumers
  • Redefine the job description of teachers as building learning communities instead of teaching 20 individuals in a classroom
  • We need to redefine leaders to be innovators and team leaders instead of managers
