Future as a Learner Essay
As the wise Dr. Seuss once said, “you have brains in your head and feet in your shoes, you can steer yourself in any direction you choose!”
Synthesis Essay
“The winners won’t just be those with more I.Q. It will also be those with more P.Q. (passion quotient) and C.Q. (curiosity quotient) to leverage all the new digital tools to not just find a job, but to invent one or reinvent one, and to not just learn but to relearn for a lifetime. Government can and must help, but the president needs to explain that this won’t just be an era of ‘Yes We Can.’ It will also be an era of ‘Yes You Can’ and ‘Yes You Must.’”
