21st Century Skills Group

“We are living in the knowledge and digital age. We are already over a decade into the 21st Century and although we are witnessing pockets of innovation in Canada’s education systems, we are not adapting to the new reality fast enough. We need to accelerate the pace of change and ensure the shift toward 21st Century models of learning is systemic across all of Canada and for all learners. Adopting 21st Century models of learning in Canada’s education systems is imperative to positioning all students and the nation as a whole for success. C21 Canada is advocating for the adoption of 21st Century models of learning for all education systems across all of Canada. …” - C21 Shifting Mind This group is for educators that believe in the importance of teaching students 21st century skills to be life long learners and happy well-adjusted people. It doesn't matter what framework you choose to use (SECRET, 7 Cs, etc) we know that it is our job to use these skills to prepare our students for ANYTHING!
