Tony Wagner
(as quoted in Pellicer, 2008)
“The rigor that matters most for the 21st century is demonstrated
mastery of the core competencies for work, citizenship, and lifelong
learning. Studying academic content is the means of developing
competencies, instead of being the goal, as it has been traditionally.
In today’s world, it’s no longer how much you know that matters; it’s
what you can do with what you know.”
