[Irtalk] 14 things that are obsolete in 21st century schools

[Ina Smith]

"Libraries that only contain books and chess tables are obsolete.
A 21st century library should be at the heart of the school and a place where both students and staff can come in to relax, read, get advice, access powerful devices, edit videos, music, print in 3D and learn how to code to name a few. This 21st century learning space should give people an equal chance to use these devices and access information. Otherwise these libraries will turn into museums where people go to look at all the things we used to use."
