Creating a 21st Century
        Classroom

  Exploring the Concepts of
Critical Thinking and Creativity
“The formulation of
                                                    a problem is often
                                                    more essential than
                                                    its solution.”

                                                           – Albert Einstein
What we Valued: Then and Now
20th Century View             21st Century View
• Completing homework and     • Generating and applying
  class work correctly          knowledge
• Mastering the basics must   • Using creative and critical
  occur before students         approaches to problem-
  move to broader skills        solving and decision-making
• Educational Success =       • Educational Success =
  Reproducing Knowledge         Extrapolating from what
                                we know and applying that
                                knowledge to novel
                                situations
A Generation Ago…
• Teachers could expect
  that what they taught
  would last students a
  lifetime.
• One of our greatest
  challenges was
  FINDING information.
• Our major task was to be
  able to RECALL it.

Now…
• Our world is experiencing
  rapid economic and
  social change
• Schools must prepare
  students for jobs that have
  not yet been created,
  technologies that have not
  yet been invented, and
  problems that we do not
  yet know will arise.

Times have changed…
So What?
• We need a way
  to engage
  students that
  represents the
  way learning
  occurs in the
  world outside
  the classroom.

Hinweis der Redaktion

  1. At your table, take 1 minute to discuss this quote, what it means to you as a science teacher, and what it means in regards to our students. Have a representative from each group share.
  2. The biggest issue was finding information. Card catalogs, Encyclopedias, Dictionaries, and Textbooks, and Topic-Specific Books were our main sources of information. The card catalog I used in high school had most of the same cards as my parents pulled when they were in high school. Information didn’t change and update as often.

  4. The game changer: students don’t really need us for content anymore. Think about what you teach that students could not find on Google.. What is there? The big things they need from us include support and guidance regarding: how to collaborate, how to analyze, how to evaluate, how to communicate effectively, how to connect our content to other disciplines, their lives, and the world around them, and how to self-monitor and self-assess. These are skills we can help student develop through our content.
  5. Reminds me of the Bob Dylan Song, “The Times, They are a Changin’”
  6. Problem-Based and Project-Based Learning provide students with all of these opportunities.
  7. Explain the p21 rainbow. Though Technology is a component, other skills are required to facilitate 21 st Century learning. Today, we will focus on the 4Cs. Lovely model, but not a great tool…not a lot you can do with it. Above horizon – core content and outcomes in the classroom Below horizon – supports Roman Architecture… arch – keystone…most important part…. 100 years ago…. What would be the same? Much has changed… the keystone that holds this all together has not changed over the past years…. Remains constant. Keystone that holds whole model together.
  8. Come back
  9. Teachers who want to move up the rating scale cannot ignore these 21 st Century skills. To move from proficient to accomplished in standard I, the teacher must “communicate to students the vision of being prepared for life in the 21 st century”. Discuss how the 4Cs are embedded in the distinguished category.
