After viewing "A Vision of K-12 Students Today" I feel challenged in my current role an an educator. As a math teacher, I have a tendency to have tunnel vision when and focus solely on teaching the concepts my students need to know. At one point in the video, a student said that they are in school for a job that hasn't even been created yet. It makes me wander, do I have what it takes to educate these students beyond their basic math skills so that they are prepared for the yet to be seen working world 10 years from now.

You are not alone. I believe districts owe it to our teachers to bring them up to speed and offer them quality training.
