In the article "Rigor Redefined" by Tony Wagner, explains how education is changing, and management is looking for different skills in people to fill in jobs. Wagner is a bit of a philanthropist in this article because he goes on explaining that teachers are not teaching students right and it is partly their fault that students are lacking some life skills such as leadership, creativity, and communication skills. This matters to me because I am a student and I think I should receive as many life skills as possible so I can get a good job. This matters to education because teachers are changing learning and we will not be nearly as educated and there will be less and less philantropists throughout the schools. This matters to the world because everyone is competing for jobs, and you need to be smart if you want a decent job. In conclusion, I feel that it is not the teachers' full respnsibility to teach students all the life skills they will need. My question for you all is, are the teachers responsible for our poor learning habits?
