This summer we are going to focus our workshops on 21st Century Skills. We will be "making over" one lesson that you already teach to include 21st Century Learning for your students. On each subject area page (listed below) you will find a model lesson and a model lesson plan that a teacher created and used in their classroom with their students. You will also find a "technology toolbox" of tools and resources that could help you incorporate 21st Century Skills into your classroom. Finally, you will find a blank lesson plan that you will use to create your lesson. Please include an approximate date of when you would teach this lesson. We would like to add your 21st Century Lesson plan to our site and create a compilation of resources for your colleagues. We need to work together to launch our students' learning into the 21st Century!

ISTE (The International Society for Technology in Education) created the NETS*S (National Educational Technology Standards for Students) a set of standards for students that focus on integrating authentic learning experiences into instruction that will prepare students for their place in our global society. We will be using these standards along side the PA State Standards for each subject area.

Higher-order thinking is also a theme that runs through the 21st Century Skills. We look to Bloom's Digital Taxonomy for a framework to describe the levels of thinking skills, always trying to ensure students are performing as close to the top as possible.
