evolved and adapted at such a fast rate as the rest of the world like if I think
as the rest of the world like if I think
as the rest of the world like if I think about it my modern classroom today is
about it my modern classroom today is
about it my modern classroom today is similar to how it was 100 if not 200
similar to how it was 100 if not 200
similar to how it was 100 if not 200 years ago if I imagine my classroom at
years ago if I imagine my classroom at
years ago if I imagine my classroom at my current school I could think there
my current school I could think there
my current school I could think there are only a few differences like
are only a few differences like
are only a few differences like blackboards being exchanged for digital

to not just update it to how it should
to not just update it to how it should be for society today but for how it
be for society today but for how it
be for society today but for how it should evolve to prepare people for how
should evolve to prepare people for how
should evolve to prepare people for how society will look like in the future and
society will look like in the future and
society will look like in the future and so how can we really prepare the young
so how can we really prepare the young
so how can we really prepare the young people of today for the future that is
people of today for the future that is
people of today for the future that is ahead of them well I think the only
ahead of them well I think the only
ahead of them well I think the only thing we can do is to provide them with
thing we can do is to provide them with
thing we can do is to provide them with skills that will benefit them skills
skills that will benefit them skills
skills that will benefit them skills like flexibility and adaptability
like flexibility and adaptability
like flexibility and adaptability because if we have these skills we can
because if we have these skills we can
because if we have these skills we can then take whatever comes pass with
