Is it me or does the phrase 21st century still sound futuristic? That Disney Channel movie, Zenon: Girl of the 21st Century about a teenager living on a space station ringing any bells? Well, whatever it makes you think of, we are living in it and need to adapt to it. The way teenagers (would) live in space is drastically different than they did in Little House on the Prairie. Likewise, the way teachers taught and students learned ought to be drastically different too.
This week, I spent some time exploring 21st Century Learning. What does a 21st Century classroom look like? What should it look like? How is it the same as it used to be? How is it different? In my research I discovered The 4 C’s of 21st Century Learning. These are essentially 4 focal points for 21st Century Learning in the classroom. They are collaboration, creativity, communication, and critical thinking. Take a look at this video I made exploring The 4 C’s along with how I implement them in my classroom now and how I’d like to in the future! Here's to #21stcenturylearning!
