21st Century Student Skills
http://usergeneratededucation.wordpress.com/tag/education-3-0/
"Many have attempted to identify the skills important for a learner today in this era of the 21st century (I know it is an overused phrase). I have an affinity towards the skills identified by Tony Wagner
This post lists children’s books to help teach children and youth about these concepts. Some are even appropriate and applicable for adults. Children’s books, as they are written and presented as stories, have great potential to explain these often abstract concepts."

A Former Google Exec Reinvents Elementary Education By Putting An R&D Lab In School
Can this one-room school with a Silicon Valley approach scale up a more personalized model for educating kids?
AltSchool, a private company backed by $4 million from seed investors, opened its first school location September 2013 in San Francisco.
With a staff now comprised half of former Google engineers and the rest mostly educators, AltSchool’s mission has two focuses. The first is to grow a network of excellent elementary schools that harken back to the single-room schoolhouses of long ago, and the second, as any tech startup would do, is to use the schools as labs to learn, iterate and improve on the model.

Schools are doing Education 1.0; talking about doing Education 2.0; when they should be planning Education 3.0
This post seeks to compare the developments of the Internet-Web to those of education.
Education 3.0 is based on the belief that content is freely and readily available. It is self-directed, interest-based learning where problem-solving, innovation and creativity drive education.

Teaching Skills: What 21st Century Educators Need To Learn To Survive
What are the traits that would make for the ideal 21st teacher? What does an educational professional need to be or do to tune in and synchronize with the new realities silently emerging inside schools and educational environments?
We know 21st century educators are student-centric, holistic and they are teaching about how to learn as much as teaching about the subject area. We know too, that they must be 21st century learners as well. But highly effective teachers in today’s classrooms are more than this - much more.

10 Ways To Fake A 21st Century Classroom

10 Ways To Fake A 21st Century Classroom
It’s 2013, so whatever you’re doing in your classroom right now is technically 21st century learning. Semantics aside, we all can improve, and many of us are being held accountable for improvement by administrators, blogs, and the local PLC to “bring the next generation into the 21st century.”
With that kind of pressure—and constant district walk-throughs—it may be necessary for you to fake a 21st century thinking and learning environment to make the right kind of impression with the right people, and give the appearance of forward-thinking.

Study: '21st-Century Learning' Demands Mix of Abilities
The modern workplace and lifestyle demand that students balance cognitive, personal, and interpersonal abilities, but current education policy discussions have not defined those abilities well, according to a special report released by the National Research Council of the National Academies of Science in Washington.

In Classroom of Future, Stagnant Scores
The digital push here aims to go far beyond gadgets to transform the very nature of the classroom, turning the teacher into a guide instead of a lecturer, wandering among students who learn at their own pace on Internet-connected devices.
Since 2005, scores in reading and math have stagnated in Kyrene, even as statewide scores have risen.

NCTE Framework for 21st Century Curriculum
http://www.ncte.org/governance/21stcenturyframework
NCTE Framework for 21st Century Curriculum and Assessment
In the 1990s, the National Council of Teachers of English and the International Reading Association established national standards for English language arts learners that anticipated the more sophisticated literacy skills and abilities required for full participation in a global, 21st century community. The selected standards, listed in the appendix, served as a clarion call for changes underway today in literacy education.
Today, the NCTE definition of 21st century literacies makes it clear that further evolution of curriculum, assessment, and teaching practice itself is necessary.

How to Bring Our Schools Out of the 20th Century: TIME Magazine Article (Jan 2007)
American schools aren't exactly frozen in time, but considering the pace of change in other areas of life, our public schools tend to feel like throwbacks. Kids spend much of the day as their great-grandparents once did: sitting in rows, listening to teachers lecture, scribbling notes by hand, reading from textbooks that are out of date by the time they are printed
How To Build a Student For the 21st Century
The world has changed, but the American classroom, for the most part, hasn't. Now educators are starting to look at what must be done to make sure our kids make the grade in the new global economy

Classroom of the Future
http://www.cs.umd.edu/hcil/kiddesign/cof.shtml
There is ongoing debate as to what role technology should play in the classroom. The concerns become ever greater when researchers discuss early childhood education. We are exploring the possibilities for the Classroom of the Future by partnering with students and teachers at The Center for Young Children in College Park, Maryland and Yorktown Elementary School in Bowie, Maryland.
The aim of this five-year National Science Foundation funded project is to foster innovation in both the development and use of new educational technologies. Research in the area of educational technologies generally focuses on the impact technologies can have on children and teachers, as opposed to the impact that children and teachers can have on the development of new technologies.
