Summary

The article was about a summary in Time Magazine about how to bring school into the 21st century. The magazine indicated to four major points. First, we should increase our children’s’ knowledge about the world such as teach them many cultures and languages. Second, we should help children think outside of square which means they have skills to create useful things. Third, we should teach them to get new and right sources of information. Lastly, the article advised to developing people skills that got high scores in intelligent tests. At the end, the article mentioned to the time. If we would like to see great results, we have to be waiting.
Reaction
I believe that if we teach our children all of these points efficiently, we will have smart children. And, we will get a great and safe future. In my opinion, making our children think outside of the box is a great thing. It is a golden key to free up their minds for invention. As an example, my country has realized what the importance of this point is and started changing its approach. However, I disagree with the article in this following point. Develop only good people skills because we can not get a correct perception about people who are smart and who are not in one test. We should give everyone chance to develop his/her skills to be fairly. In fact, this article makes me curious to read more and more about it.
