    The presentation discusses preparing students for the innovation era. It includes interviews with Jacob, Jaime, and Rebecca about their experiences with education. Jacob felt college did not teach real-world skills. Jaime believed college was the only path to success. Rebecca left Harvard to build her own company. The presentation argues the current education system focuses on testing and memorization rather than problem solving, critical thinking and life skills needed for future careers and citizenship. It connects these themes to the book Most Likely to Succeed, suggesting the Bicycle Aptitude Test relates to outdated aspects of the US education system that need updating to emphasize innovation.

    acceptance into the elite colleges.

    Conclusion continued…
