Did you know?

Sometimes size does matter.
10
If youre one in a million in China . . .
11
there are 1,300 people just like you.
12
In India, there are 1,100 people just like you.
13
The 25 of the population in China with the
highest IQs . . .
14
is greater than the total population of North
America.
15
In India, its the top 28.
16
Translation for teachersthey have more honors
kids than we have kids.
17
China will soon become the number one
English-speaking country in the world.
18
If you took every single job in the U.S. today
and shipped it to China . . .
19
it still would have a labor surplus.
20
During the course of this presentation . . .
21

• 60 babies will be born in the U.S.
• 244 babies will be born in China.
• 351 babies will be born in India.

22
The U.S. Department of Labor estimates that
todays learner will have 10 to 14 jobs . . .
23
by age 38.
24
According to the U.S. Department of Labor . . .
25
1 out of 4 workers today is working for a
company for whom they have been employed less
than 1 year.
26
More than 1 out of 2 are working for a company
for whom they have worked less than 5 years.
27
According to former Secretary of Education
Richard Riley . . .
28
the top 10 jobs that will be in demand in 2010
didnt exist in 2004.
29
We are currently preparing students for jobs
that dont yet exist . . .
30
using technologies that havent yetbeen
invented . . .
31
in order to solve problems we dont even know
are problems yet.
32
Name this country . . .
33

• Richest in the world
• Largest military
• Center of world business and finance
• Strongest education system
• World center of innovation and invention
• Currency the world standard of value
• Highest standard of living

34
England
35
in 1900.
36
Did you know?
37
The U.S. is 20thin the world in broadband
Internet penetration (Luxembourg just passed
us).
38
Nintendo invested more than 140 million in
research and developmentin 2002 alone.
39
The U.S. federal government spent less than half
as much on research and innovation in education.
40
1 of every 8 couples married in the U.S. last
year met online.
41
There are over 106 million registered users of
MySpace (as of September 2006).
42
If MySpace were a country,it would be the
11th-largest in the world (between Japan and
Mexico).
43
The average MySpace page is visited 30 times a
day.
44
Did you know?
45
We are living in exponential times.
46
There are over 2.7 billion searches performed on
Google each month.
47
To whom were these questions addressed
B.G.(before Google)?
48
The number of text messages sent and received
every day exceeds the population of the planet.
49
There are about 540,000 words in the English
language . . .
50
about 5 times as many as during Shakespeares
time.
51
More than 3,000 new books are published . . .
52
daily.
53
It is estimated that a weeks worth of New York
Times . . .
54
contains more information than a person was
likely to come across in a lifetime in the 18th
century.
55
It is estimated that 1.5 exabytes (1.5 x 1018)
of unique new information will be generated
worldwide this year.
56
Thats estimated to be more than in the
previous 5,000 years.
57
The amount of new technical information is
doubling every 2 years.
58
For students starting a four-year technical or
college degree, this means that . . .
59
half of what they learn in their first year of
study will be outdated by their third year of
study.
60
It is predicted to double every 72 hours by
2010.
61
Third-generation fiber optics has recently been
tested by both NEC and Alcatel . . .
62
that pushes 10 trillion bits per second down
one strand of fiber.
63
Thats 1,900 CDs, or 150 million simultaneous
phone calls, every second.
64
Its currently tripling about every 6 months and
is expected to do so for at least the next 20
years.
65
The fiber is already there. Theyre just
improving the switches on the ends, which means
the marginal cost of these improvements is
effectively 0.
66
Predictions are thate-paper will be cheaper
than real paper.
67
47 million laptops were shipped worldwide last
year.
68
The 100 laptop project is expecting to ship
between 50 to 100 million laptops a year to
children in underdeveloped countries.
69
Predictions are that by 2013 a supercomputer
will be built that exceeds the computation
capability of the human brain.
70
By 2023, when 1st-graders will be just 23 years
old and beginning their (first) careers . . .
71
it only will take a 1,000 computer to exceed
the capabilities of the human brain.
72
And while technical predictions farther out
than about 15 years are hard to make . . .
73
predictions are that by 2049 a 1,000 computer
will exceed the computational capabilities of
the human race.
74
What does it all mean?
75
Shift happens.
76
Now you know . . .
