True or False?



Two Narratives

Post Industrial EraIndustrial Era


Michael Boll | Michael Lambert | www.MichaelBoll.meIndustrial Era 1840’s -1990’s



Schools were on board!



Universal schooling was a newer idea



Industrialists had all the

power


Michael Boll | Michael Lambert | www.MichaelBoll.mePushback: Union and cooperative bargaining



Grand bargain

is struck



Grand BargainIf you work hard, follow the rules and pay attention, you get

!

•Job •Lifetime employment •Medical care of some sort •Retirement •Career ladder •Stable government •Protection from crime and fire



Grand Bargain Debate



COMFORTABLE!



Downsides Of Industrialization• Exploited workers

• Child labor

• Weapons of war that allowed for mass annihilation of soldiers

• Environmental degradation

• WORST PART



Power in Scale

To make it worthwhile you have to do it in very large numbers or it is not worth it.

Not This ScaleThis Scale



Sample Industries That Used Scale

• Autos

• Trucks

• Oil

• Publishing

• Movies

• Farming (ADM)

• Weapons industry

• TV and Radio

• Music

• What else? Help me? (socrative time?)

Which ones no

longer need scale?



Post Industrial



Two Views

Who wins

who loses?



Some Companies Still Provide a Lifetime Career



No Choice Though

The Grand Bargain Is Over!



Scale is less difficult



Scale still an issue for some industries.

• Oil

• Some manufacturing

• Car, airplanes, aircraft carriers

!

• Others?



The long tail is here

What interests are on this tail?



What are your interests?



Barriers to entry lowered



You can print lots of stuff!



Power shifted to the individual not the industrialist

Good or bad?



Everybody can be a designer now!



Not as great if you are a low skilled worker



New Narrative

• Schools are designed to fulfill the needs of the industrial era.

• Today we can (and must?) customize education. Let’s be more flexible.



Why? What Changed?

So what? How did communication revolution change things?

• Now I can reach out to large massive numbers of humans to find people with similar interests.

• I can differentiate like crazy

• Money is easy to move

• Some governments don’t like this.



Topic Democracy: Your diversity may or may not be my diversity



Communication revolution starts young!



What Now? What Should I do?

Shift happened



Problem: We don’t know what we don’t know

“The message is that there are no "knowns." There are things we know that we know. There are known unknowns. That is to say there are things that we now know we don't know. But there are also unknown unknowns. There are things we do not know we don't know. So when we do the best we can and we pull all this information together, and we then say well that's basically what we see as the situation, that is really only the known knowns and the known unknowns. And each year, we discover a few more of those unknown unknowns.”-- !Donald Rumsfeld, Former US Secretary of Defense



Choices



Stay on or ahead of the curve



Resist



False choices?



Failure is an

option and

normal



Create your own way forward
