Submission + - Teaching the 21st Century Skills Set?
Grishknash writes: "I'm a teacher at a well known private, international high school. We recently had David Warlick present at our school about 21st century literacy. http://davidwarlick.com/wiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.Red efiningLiteracyForThe21stCentury I'm also a member of the recommendation committee at the school for science curriculum on content and skills. Being a techie type guy I naturally desire technological integration and literacy in my classroom, but I keep asking myself — when, how much, what types. So I thought to ask you, the slashdotters. What do you want your children to learn in science classes and how? To what degree content vs inquiry? What are the 21st century skills your [and my] children need for 21st century success? Are they the same skills my older colleagues [problem solving, critical analysis, creativity] say they are, or have they changed in some way? Like this group suggests? http://www.21stcenturyskills.org/"
