I’ve been invited to attend the 21st Century Literacy Summit on 7-8 March 2002 in Berlin. Amazing, these guys (AOL/Bertelsmann Foundations) actually fly in people to attend their conference.

“Society in the 21st Century is undergoing rapid changes as it shifts from industrial models to a “knowledge-based society.” In order for the broadest segment of the population to take full advantage of this transition, it is critical to develop and promote a new “21st Century Literacy.” New technologies have already become an integral part of everyday life. They have also transformed many aspects of how we learn and interact, especially in Education, Workplace, Public policy.”
