So how do we make our children competitive?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;During a recent course on globalization there were a few crucial points observed:&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;ol style="margin-top: 0in;" start="1" type="1"&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style=""&gt;We      need to teach children to learn how to be learners.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style=""&gt;They      need to be able to solve problems creatively as well as logically.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style=""&gt;They      need to be able to use technology and stay on the forefront of new      technologies.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style=""&gt;And      they must be able to work as part of a globally diverse team, linked via      technology, across the globe.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;We Americans are very culturally knowledgeable; however what you notice, as a difference between our education and that of our overseas counterparts is that they tend to be more linguistically versed than ourselves, knowing, often more than one language.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;So our central question on this BLOG is how do we prepare our children for the 21&lt;sup&gt;st&lt;/sup&gt; Century?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/642122763038033914-2428802257768818173?l=wwwkidzbizzkidz.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel="replies" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://wwwkidzbizzkidz.blogspot.com/feeds/2428802257768818173/comments/default" title="Post Comments" /><link rel="replies" type="text/html" href="http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=642122763038033914&amp;postID=2428802257768818173" title="6 Comments" /><link rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/642122763038033914/posts/default/2428802257768818173?v=2" /><link rel="self" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/642122763038033914/posts/default/2428802257768818173?v=2" /><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/KidzBizzDrop-inCareBlogWelcome/~3/0o7HA-8I_WE/how-do-we-prepare-our-children-for.html" title="How do we Prepare our children for the future?" /><author><name>KIDZ BIZZ, LLC</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16881902757184054042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail" width="32" height="30" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_1h9WBMTaWR0/R_tkfYWf_CI/AAAAAAAAAA4/x2Qgxmr7s1E/S220/Copy+of+KIDZ+BIZZ+LOGO.jpg" /></author><thr:total>6</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://wwwkidzbizzkidz.blogspot.com/2008/07/how-do-we-prepare-our-children-for.html</feedburner:origLink></entry><entry gd:etag="W/&quot;DkMASHo7eip7ImA9WxRQGEg.&quot;"><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-642122763038033914.post-8322736405717480330</id><published>2008-04-06T16:57:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-10-12T16:34:09.402-07:00</updated><app:edited xmlns:app="http://www.w3.org/2007/app">2008-10-12T16:34:09.402-07:00</app:edited><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="education" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="child care" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="babysitting" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="daycare" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="tutoring" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="drop-in childcare" /><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="preschool" /><title>KIDZ BIZZ Drop-In Childcare</title><content type="html">Hello,&lt;br /&gt;This is my first blog and quite frankly I am really unsure what to do. So here goes!&lt;br /&gt;The intent of this blog is to provide an open dialog for parents to communicate with KID BIZZ in a free and open manner, a kind of online PTO.&lt;br /&gt;At KIDZ BIZZ we consider it the customers business, that being the case we wish to provide a forum where parents can communicate their idea's, needs, wants etc. As well as posting any questions associated with child care, education, child development. And quite frankly anything  constructive which comes to mind.&lt;br /&gt;So I hope this works out and I look forward to talking to everyone.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/642122763038033914-8322736405717480330?l=wwwkidzbizzkidz.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel="replies" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://wwwkidzbizzkidz.blogspot.com/feeds/8322736405717480330/comments/default" title="Post Comments" /><link rel="replies" type="text/html" href="http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=642122763038033914&amp;postID=8322736405717480330" title="2 Comments" /><link rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/642122763038033914/posts/default/8322736405717480330?v=2" /><link rel="self" type="application/atom+xml" href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/642122763038033914/posts/default/8322736405717480330?v=2" /><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/KidzBizzDrop-inCareBlogWelcome/~3/r60rayzZ3Ac/kidz-bizz-drop-in-childcare.html" title="KIDZ BIZZ Drop-In Childcare" /><author><name>KIDZ BIZZ, LLC</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16881902757184054042</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail" width="32" height="30" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_1h9WBMTaWR0/R_tkfYWf_CI/AAAAAAAAAA4/x2Qgxmr7s1E/S220/Copy+of+KIDZ+BIZZ+LOGO.jpg" /></author><thr:total>2</thr:total><feedburner:origLink>http://wwwkidzbizzkidz.blogspot.com/2008/04/kidz-bizz-drop-in-childcare.html</feedburner:origLink></entry></feed>
