21st Century Learning skills
When we think about bringing the 4 C’s into our classroom, we don’t need to “add” a thing. The best way to help students master these skills is to change HOW we teach and learn in our classrooms. It is the process of learning, not the content of learning, that addresses the 4 C’s.
Technology is a perfect vehicle for facilitating this. But this isn’t about learning how to use technology or even teaching with technology tools, it is about students creating and constructing with technology. We can help students build creativity and critical thinking by the types of questions we ask them to respond to. With all of the information that can easily be found online, we no longer need to have students think of things, but think about them. |
