- In a crosswalk of 21st century skills by Hanover Research, it is stated that the American school system is failing to adequately equip students with the necessary skills and knowledge to contribute to society. So, we need to ask “What skills are needed to contribute in society?” and furthermore, “How can we as educators fulfill this need of our students?”
- Prior to the 21st century, technology was much simpler. Normally lectures were delivered from the front of a classroom and notes were on a chalkboard. We didn’t have computers in every classroom or even every home. If we wanted to learn something we had to look in a book or find an article in a journal or magazine! It never ceases to amaze me when a student asks me what it was like to not have a cell phone. I simply reply, “Much quieter in a restaurant!”
- The modern learners have integrated technology into their everyday life! But, they are not robots! We are not programmed to know how to text, share, like, or even post/blog/tweet! We all need to learn how to do this. We need to be taught certain skills to participate within this community of 21st century learners.
- 21st century learners need to be able to collaborate with other learners. Learning is no longer linear. We learn from multiple resources at the same time. Part of this learning is collaborating with other learners toward a common goal of learning a subject. For example: say we want to learn how a computer works. We can start by simply entering a search into an online search engine and we will find millions of results related to how a computer works.
