Keys to building a new generation of courses and schools
While many futurists tout the value of teaching students 21st-century skills, bridging the concept with the practice is best accomplished by professional educators. Authors Bruce Joyce and Emily Calhoun know how to actualize the critical reforms that enable schools to prepare students for today′s workforce. They outline a clear vision for advancing school reform that emphasizes infusing technology across the curriculum. Specific steps include:
Providing technology access to all students to promote equity and engagementDeveloping hybrid courses that prepare students to meet 21st-century needsDesigning professional development that connects technology to teachingImproving literacy instructionChanging the high school paradigmInvolving teachers, parents, and community members in school leadershipWe have a tremendous opportunity to bridge education with the information and communications technology revolution. Joyce and Calhoun show how to deliver on the promise of a 21st-century education by teaching students the skills they need to achieve in their careers and in life.
