There is a lot of debate among educators about what exactly is "21st Century Education" and "21st Century Skills." Generally, however, it is agreed that schools today need to do a better job of preparing students for the realities of living and working in a global economy and society.

This section of the website will be devoted to researching and debating this topic: what IS 21st Century Learning?

What are the skills that you, as students, need in order to thrive in this interconnected society?

Let's work on this together. Educators need students' input to prepare schools for the 21st century. Use this section to read articles, watch interviews and video, and post new material that addresses 21st Century Skills and learning. Talk to others at your school and make a video to show us how kids at your school are practicing 21st Century skills. Use the links below--or create new ones--to build a vast 21st century learning and research center here that can be shared with other schools, businesses, and organizations around the country. Let's GET TALKING about 21st Century Education!
