This clip was set for viewing as one of the first tasks in CSU’s 23 digital things challenge, which I stared this morning.
It is a beautifully created visual and auditory stimulation of what is takes to make our world a better place.
The list of vital skills for our modern world contains five qualities that machines can never have:
- Curiousity
- Creativity – in the sense of liberating human energy -based on Howard Gardner
- Initiative
- Multi-disciplinary thinking – not multi-tasking but multi-asking
- Empathy
It left me with the question: What human skills can I offer the world?

What a simple yet pertinent start Margaret to the 23 Things for Digital Knowledge Learning series. It’s making me think about how the world does not owe us anything – we owe the world much and should contribute meaningfully when we can.
