PLTW State conference

Had a great day this past Monday at UNL as I attended the State PLTW conference.  Lots of great info and insight on the future of technology and engineering.  We have autonomous vehicles but we also have the possibility of autonomous highways.  Boggles my mind.  What will this world look like for my grandkids?   We have jobs available, now we just have to make sure our students have the skills they need to fill these jobs.  We have to prepare them for jobs that will haven't even been thought of yet.  Critical thinking and problem solving  are the most important skills that our students will need to be successful in the 21st century and beyond.
