Educators work across a spectrum of thinking, from purely disinterested reflection to systematic professional application. Educators act in the world through diverse means through guiding theories, through controlling policies, through organized practices. Break the cycles of educational reproduction that have perpetuated debilitating distinctions among people, and create a new milieu of practice, encompassing digital learning communities, where people of many ages, interests, and achievements mix and work together in the effort of learning, sharing and helping each other, supported by complete digital libraries, by open wide-area networks, and by good tools for intellectual navigation, analysis, synthesis, and simulation, engaged in advancing the culture, in adding to truth, in upholding value, in applying skill to the work of the world. As educators rise to these challenges, we renew the progressive bond with posterity. We make a better future.
Educators have much to do.
