This is an interesting article because of the effort to argue for the development of specific skills (a combination of higher order thinking and design skills in my opinion) and links to open source and free options for developing\/applying these aptitudes. I tend to focus on Mac multimedia tools so those who follow this blog may appreciate the attendtion to Windows apps (e.g., <a href=\"http:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/windowsxp\/using\/digitalphotography\/photostory\/default.mspx\">Photostory<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/windowsxp\/downloads\/updates\/moviemaker2.mspx\">MovieMaker<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>Note to semi-techie-types &#8211; this article ends with suggestions for adding MySQL and PHP capabilities to both Mac (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.mamp.info\/en\/home\/\">MAMP<\/a>) and Windows (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.wampserver.com\/en\/index.php\">WAMP<\/a>) platforms. Over the years, I have found that setting up a new server with PHP and MySQL capabilities (actually it is mostly MySQL that causes me problems) requires that I relearn a bunch of things that I then promptly forget until the next time. Efforts to automate such installations is worth a look.<\/p>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>\n<p id=\"pvc_stats_711\" class=\"pvc_stats all  \" data-element-id=\"711\" style=\"\"><i class=\"pvc-stats-icon medium\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" data-prefix=\"far\" data-icon=\"chart-bar\" role=\"img\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 512 512\" class=\"svg-inline--fa fa-chart-bar fa-w-16 fa-2x\"><path fill=\"currentColor\" d=\"M396.8 352h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V108.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v230.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm-192 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V140.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v198.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm96 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V204.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v134.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zM496 400H48V80c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16H16C7.16 64 0 71.16 0 80v336c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h464c8.84 0 16-7.16 16-16v-16c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16zm-387.2-48h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8v-70.4c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v70.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8z\" class=\"\"><\/path><\/svg><\/i> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" alt=\"Loading\" src=\"https:\/\/learningaloud.com\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/page-views-count\/ajax-loader-2x.gif\" border=0 \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Miguel Guhlin, in an techLearning article (registration may be required for free access), proposes that knowledge workers will need to develop new skills to be competitive in a read\/write world.
