The problem with one of the biggest changes in education around the world
There's an interesting thing happening in countries where kids are the most comfortable with computers: they aren't reading all that well. In fact, the more children use computers at school, the more their reading abilities seem to suffer.
The reason why computers and Internet use seem to be having this adverse affect is likely fairly straightforward: the time kids are spending getting acquainted with computers is time they aren't spending honing their reading skills. It's no coincidence that chatting online is the activity that seems to hurt students' reading ability the most – using email and browsing, both of which involve reading and processing longer texts, appear to be the least harmful.
But computers might also be killing more helpful paths of thought and discovery. ”Students are cutting and pasting answers instead of finding them,” said Andreas Schleicher, who is the director of education at the OECD and lead author of the study.

Younger workers disadvantaged
1 A degree has been far more valuable for older college-educated workers in Europe. It is still quite difficult for young European college graduates to find a job. The unemployment rate for workers under age 25 is 2.6 times that of the total jobless rate, according to Eurostat.
2 In Spain, where unemployment is expected to stay above 25% through 2016, university graduates have an advantage, with a jobless rate of 17%. But examining the data reveals age disparities. Today in Spain, 45% of university graduates aged 16 to 24 are unemployed, according to the country’s national statistical office, far higher than the overall unemployment rate for university graduates.

Leia, a seguir, uma pequena biografia do artista holandês Van Gogh.
Vincent Van Gogh (March 30, 1853 - July 29, 1890) is generally considered the greatest Dutch painter after Rembrandt, though he had little success during his lifetime. Van Gogh produced all of his work (some 900 paintings and 1100 drawings) during a period of only 10 years before he succumbed to mental illness (possibly bipolar disorder) and committed suicide. His fame grew rapidly after his death especially following a showing of his paintings in Paris in 1901 (11 years after his death).
Van Gogh's influence on expressionism, fauvism and early abstraction was enormous, and can be seen in many other aspects of 20th-century art. The Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam is dedicated to Van Gogh's work and that of his contemporaries.
Several paintings by Van Gogh rank among the most expensive paintings in the world. On March 30, 1987 Van Gogh's painting "Irises" was sold for a record $53.9 million at Southeby's, New York. On May 15, 1990 his portrait of Doctor Gachet was sold for $82.5 million at Christie's, thus establishing a new price record.

If it can be lost on the streets of Tokyo, it can be found in the citys lost-and-found center, where everything from diamond rings to dentures and millions of dollars in stray cash await their owners. Im not surprised anymore by what people lose, says custodian Nobuo Hasuda as he walks along the paths between wheelchairs, snowshoes, motorcycle, helmets, and trumpets. Typical of a country obsessed with order and detail, every item is scrupulously labeled with time and place of recovery, then computer archived. (Texto adaptado. SASLOW; ASCHER, 2006, p.118)

Younger workers disadvantaged
1 A degree has been far more valuable for older college-educated workers in Europe. It is still quite difficult for young European college graduates to find a job. The unemployment rate for workers under age 25 is 2.6 times that of the total jobless rate, according to Eurostat.
2 In Spain, where unemployment is expected to stay above 25% through 2016, university graduates have an advantage, with a jobless rate of 17%. But examining the data reveals age disparities. Today in Spain, 45% of university graduates aged 16 to 24 are unemployed, according to the country’s national statistical office, far higher than the overall unemployment rate for university graduates.

Leia, a seguir, uma pequena biografia do artista holandês Van Gogh.
Vincent Van Gogh (March 30, 1853 - July 29, 1890) is generally considered the greatest Dutch painter after Rembrandt, though he had little success during his lifetime. Van Gogh produced all of his work (some 900 paintings and 1100 drawings) during a period of only 10 years before he succumbed to mental illness (possibly bipolar disorder) and committed suicide. His fame grew rapidly after his death especially following a showing of his paintings in Paris in 1901 (11 years after his death).
Van Gogh's influence on expressionism, fauvism and early abstraction was enormous, and can be seen in many other aspects of 20th-century art. The Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam is dedicated to Van Gogh's work and that of his contemporaries.
Several paintings by Van Gogh rank among the most expensive paintings in the world. On March 30, 1987 Van Gogh's painting "Irises" was sold for a record $53.9 million at Southeby's, New York. On May 15, 1990 his portrait of Doctor Gachet was sold for $82.5 million at Christie's, thus establishing a new price record.

The biggest factor influencing businesses today is technology, said top bank executive Jean Lemierre at the Singapore Summit.
He added that it is changing the way we operate. “I do not belong to the group of people who think that technology will destroy jobs — technology will change the jobs.”
“We need to pay a lot of attention to training, education, adaptation. At the end of the day, it will be an element for growth and it will be positive,” Lemierre said.
