Globalization changing education
| October 9, 2007 |  View for printing |
Teachers and students need to constantly learn new educational languages in the 21st century or face being left behind in a competitive world, North Olmsted School Superintendent Cheryl Dubsky said in her state of the schools address.
While addressing the North Olmsted Chamber of Commerce last Thursday in the district’s annual report, Dubsky said ways of preparing students for the future change frequently in response to ever-changing technology.
“As we converse with each other today and in the future, we need to speak a new language,” Dubsky said. “Not the language of business or educational jargon, but the language of greatness. What separates a good business or educational organization from a great one? Who we are, what we are, what we say and what we do creates a culture – both within a community and within the school district as a subset of the community.”
