The world is changing…
• According to former Secretary of Education
Richard Riley :
• 60 percent of all new jobs in the 21st century
will require skills possessed by only 20
percent of the current workforce.
• We are currently preparing
students for jobs that don't
yet exist using technologies
that haven't yet been
invented to solve problems
we don't even know are
problems yet.
When I graduated from High
School…
• We had:
–
–
–
–
8 Track Tapes – Not MP3’s & IPods
Slide Rules – Not Calculators, Computers
Rotary Phones – Not IPhones & Skipe
Seat Belts – Not Air Bags, Anti-Lock Brakes,
Traction Control, Crash Avoidance
– US Mail – Not E-mail, Internet Messaging,
Blogs, Telepresence
Achievements of the Present:
What will the future hold?
• 150-200 Year Life Spans
• Genetic Research
• Bio Engineering
– “Growing” Replacement Parts
•
•
•
•
•
•
Nano Technology – Intel Chips @ 45 microns
Hydrogen / Solar / High Efficiency Fuels
Environmental & Climatology Research
Big Data (Target pregnancy story)
Intra Planetary / Intra Galactic Research / Travel

A Way Forward:
“Tonight, I want to speak about how we
move forward, and lay out a blueprint for an
economy that’s built to last - an economy
built on American manufacturing, American
energy, skills for American workers, and a
renewal of American values.
Now, this blueprint begins with American
manufacturing.”
President Barak Obama

Quote:
• “For 2010 and 2011 to date, GenMet has
received either job applications or resumes
from over 1,100 people. We interviewed
150, hired 25 and retained 12.”
Mary Isbister
President, GenMet
David Brooks Article:
• One of the perversities of this
recession is that as the
unemployment rate has risen, the job
vacancy rate has risen, too.
Manufacturing firms can’t find skilled
machinists. Narayana Kocherlakota of
the Minneapolis Federal Reserve Bank
calculates that if we had a normal
match between the skills workers
possess and the skills employers
require, then the unemployment rate
would be 6.5 percent, not 9.6 percent.
