In our era, technology also enables connection to people, places and ideas\u2014in ways that were never possible before.\r\n5.

This changes everything... how they learn, what they learn, why they learn, who they learn from, who they teach and how, the role of school and teachers.\r\n7. Or does it? I am traveling the world, talking to kids, asking them about their lives, their interests, their concerns, their plans. It\u2019s called Kids on Earth... (explain...)\r\n8.
