I found the following video, which presents some incredible figures about our world today and in the future, to be very inspiring.

It raises the question – what are the skills that are relevant today and in the near future?

I do not think that the traditional way of education could last much longer. Nowadays, ideas can be spread world-wide at the same day that they were thought of using blogs and other internet technologies (compared to textbooks, which take years to be written and published). I also think that two of these skills are information seeking and self-learning. This is since, while the internet does offer tremendous amount of usable information, one has to find and learn it by oneself.

Enjoy.
