Pioneers blazing new trails to 21st Century Learning
The goal of technology integration is to use technology seamlessly so that the technology itself
becomes a transparent and integral tool to teach core curriculum.
- Technology & Curriculum Integration, Digital Learning Environments
Because living and working are so different now from even a decade or two ago and because things will continue to change, today’s students need new skills to survive and thrive in the future.
What Is 21st Century Learning?
What are Web 2.0 Tools?
For Generation Xers and Baby-Boomers, our first experience with the Internet was a Web 1.0 experience: a one-way source of information--from the Internet to us. The Internet has evolved into a two-way channel: we can not only get information but can also interact with information. This two-way interaction, or Web 2.0, has spawned a plethora of digital tools that allow us to connect, collaborate, create.
Many of these tools are FREE! They allow us, as educators, to connect and collaborate with each other and with educators around the globe. They allow us to create, to design, to publish. Ultimately, they allow us to create learning environments where technology becomes not the focus but a tool for deeper, more engaged learning.
