The Earth\u2019s population will surpass 9 billion people, the power of computing will increase exponentially, and the world will face unprecedented economic, political and environmental challenges. However, what nobody can predict now, is how the schools and the teachers of the mid-21stcentury will be different from modern schools. In this talk I will dare to discuss my vision about how technology will change how we teach and learn science. \u00a0I will argue that 21st\u00a0century schools will feature a significant qualitative and quantitative change in how science is taught and learned in our schools.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/mmilner\/files\/2015\/01\/NerdNite_Jan_20_2015_MilnerBolotin.pdf\">NerdNite_Jan_20_2015_MilnerBolotin<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/mmilner\/files\/2015\/01\/NerdNite_Jan_20_2015_MilnerBolotin.pptx\">NerdNite_Jan_20_2015_MilnerBolotin<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[youtube]http:\/\/youtu.be\/Kpn2ifkJ9yc[\/youtube] I had an opportunity to present a talk at Nerd Nite Vancouver event.
