Intrigued by a colleague's tweet about "Everyone you meet knows something you don't," linked to a TED Talk by Celeste Headlee. It starts with telling you to forget everything you've been taught about having a conversation and gives ten pointers for having an authentic conversation.
Is this a 21st century skill that we need to deliberately teach? Now that teenagers get an average of 100 texts per day, is it important that we show our kids how to have a conversation? Is it okay to be sitting next to someone and send them a text when you could just talk to them? I'm sure that there's varying opinions on this.
Please comment.
