"If students need new skills, then teachers need new capacities as well," said ISTE CEO Don Knezek in his opening keynote to a 21st Century Learning conference being held October 31--November 4 near Shanghai, China. Knezek detailed ISTE's vision for transformed learning and teaching, challenging the assembled educators to "study digital age learners and what engages them, foster creative and inventive thinking...and prepare to contribute in an increasingly multicultural setting." ISTE member and 21st Century Learning conference presenter, Wes Fryer, is live-blogging conference sessions, including Knezek's keynote.
