The Global Achievement Gap: Chapter 5

5 main points:
- Concern about the poor work ethic in our youth. Is it poor work ethic? or are people just differently motivated?
- Today's generation of youth are extremely technology orientated. Students feel the need to multi-task. Is this affecting their ability to concentrate on one task at a time?
- People in this day and age strive for immediate access to information. This makes us less patient and obviously more demanding.
- Technology is growing at an incredible rate and it is essential to understand the various ways that students are learning in today's world.
- Most students want learning to be active, not passive. They want to be challenged.
