Chapter 3 New Tools || p.11 "It is important to ask: Who will be prepared for the new world? Who will have the technological and thinking skills needed for the 21st century? And how can we help them prepare?"

p. 70 Think.com is not an open source, but it is an online learning community which "turns students into multimedia authors who use Web sites and interactive tools to collaborate on projects, build knowledge together, and publish their ideas...password-protected learning community that allows entry only to member schools and commands a large but vetted audience for student work." ||
