211103 - Received ref DRT 1 0001 from Pam commenting on the copy of the letter

211107 - Pam says....
211108 -
211109 -     I appreciate your sending me this letter but there is no way I
211110 -     have time to read all this. Can you summarize it in a nutshell??
211111 -
211112 - Submitted ref DIT 1 0001 apologizing for the earlier long letter, and
211113 - summarizing the future of education for continual learning, as
211114 - follows....
211115 -     ..
211116 -     For a mom, the big idea is that traditional curriculum in
211117 -     school can be strengthened by giving kids the new skills to
211118 -     convert information using alphabet technology (like this letter)
211119 -     into useful knowledge by adding organization, analysis, alignment,
211120 -     summary (what you requested) and feedback (what you provided).
211121 -     Without these skills enabling a new way of working, hi-tech causes
211122 -     information overload that makes communication a cause of continual
211123 -     problems, rather that an engine of progress. ref DIT 1 EH6G
211124 -
211125 -     For an adult, out making a living, the big idea is that learning
211126 -     continues past school by taking stuff we get in an email, books,
211127 -     magazines, hear on television, the phone and in meetings, and
211128 -     connect it up into organizational memory. Adding "intelligence" to
211129 -     this new resource using new skills learned in school, per above,
211130 -     enables continual learning over a lifetime about correlations,
211131 -     implications and nuance normally overlooked because we are too
211132 -     busy.
211133 -     ..
211134 -     Working only from summary causes cursory, erroneous
211135 -     understanding that causes productivity, earnings and stock prices
211136 -     to fall, despite working hard. Individually, from day-to-day we
211137 -     may not sense a deficit, but multiplied across an organization,
211138 -     and across the nation, the weight of continual bumbling impacts
211139 -     economic performance. ref DIT 1 8A7J
211140 -
211141 -          [On 011106 demonstrated difference between summary and
211142 -          context. ref SDS 12 5V6K
211143 -
211144 -     So, the future of learning means enabling people to work smarter
211145 -     not harder by transitioning from a culture of information to a
211146 -     culture of knowledge, explained more fully in the earlier letter.
