Unfortunately for American students, our classrooms are falling way behind. For centuries, reading, writing and arithmetic have been the basic requirements for children to function in society, but as manufacturing jobs have either moved or been replaced through automation, literacy in the 21st century will mean something different to the next generation.

Dean Kamen, 66, holds over 440 patents and is well known for inventing the Segway scooter, Ibot and a portable version of the insulin pump and dialysis machine.
