Small and Smaller: The third era of globalization is shrinking the world from size small to a size tiny.
By THOMAS L. FRIEDMAN, March 4, 2004
Globalization 3.0
Produced by three forces:
•Massive installation of undersea fiber-optic cable and bandwidth (thanks to the dot-com bubble) that have made it possible to globally transmit and store huge amounts of data for almost nothing.
•Second, the diffusion of PC's around the world.
•Third, the convergence of a variety of software applications — from e-mail, to Google, to Microsoft Office, to specially designed outsourcing programs — that, when combined with all those PC's and bandwidth, made it possible to
create global "work-flow platforms."

-----------------------------------------Printed from LocalTechWire.comPosted: 04/21/2005 08:45 PM-----------------------------------------Easley Announces Education Partnership for 21st Century Workforce
By Laura Childs, Special To LTW
DURHAM- “The ‘90s were last century. The future is about partnerships between business and education.” This was the message Governor Mike Easley shared at a surprise announcement Thursday to a crowd of over 500 community leaders at NCTA’s A CEO Conversation at the Washington Duke in Durham.
“We will identify the skills needed by future employees to create students that can compete and win in a global economy,” emphasized Easley. “We don’t want to be second, we want to win!”
The initiative on how to make that happen is called The North Carolina Center for 21st Century Skills, and jumpstarts the beginning of a nationwide campaign to improve education to produce college graduates that are better prepared to enter the global workforce of today and tomorrow. The Center will be housed at the North Carolina Business Committee for Education (NCBCE) and is a public-private partnership supported by North Carolina public schools, community colleges and universities, in addition to corporations and businesses.
“We must continue to reform our public school system to meet the growing demands of the new global economy,” said Governor Easley. “The new 21st Century Skills Center will ensure that students graduate from our educational institutions with the skills they need to compete and succeed in the workplace. I am proud that North Carolina is a national leader in education progress.”

WORK LOAD AND HOMEWORK
We don’t have a lot of homework at New Tech“
“
Students at New Tech have a lot of work to do … some of that work happens outside of class time. But we don’t
assign the kind of work that students normally associate with “homework”. In
addition, they have internships, community service, senior project and
portfolio requirements. Like professional workers, they see it as
work, not homework.
