    This something has been termed '21st Century Skills'. Standardizing and then prescribing those skills will not work because the new way is not a about memorization and testing, it is a way of BEING. The whole manner in which young people go about getting things done has changed. And Public Schooling needs to change, now, too. For Real. No more pretend change. No more going through the motions.

    I think the school culture is in how we treat each other. It is not something that sits…like a noun. School culture is a verb…that is a part of how we act, speak, share, collaborate, glance, and interact with each other.

  • Once a leader in a smaller district knows where he or she wants to go, change can happen more quickly than in a mid- or large-size district.

      I wonder what would denote a small or mid-size district. Obviously the number of enrolled students, but there's some flexibility there.
  • Freeman, who uses a blog to communicate with students and parents, points out that her own active use of technology in the 4,200-student district has helped create a norm for others to follow.

      Lead by example, nice.
  • “The kind of learning we expect 21st-century teachers to achieve is the intersection of content pedagogy and technology,” Moran insists.

  • “You can no longer take on a professional development agenda without a technology component,” Kimball argues. “We know that professional learning communities are not effective without everything—from access to student data to the tools to analyze it.”
  • Freeman says. “We’re still trying to find ways to assess what we know we morally should. We know that students need to be competitive in a global environment.”

  • “We have quite a distance to stretch in assessment,” adds Moran, although her district recently installed an instructional system from Schoolnet that provides rubrics for more open-ended tasks and allows teachers to score them accordingly.

      I wonder how many districts know exactly what they want out of their assessments, and how many have a good general idea, but then have their notions blown away when looking at all of the assessment tools available today.

  • Essential Elements of Service Learning
    • David Warlick
      David Warlick on 03 Jan 11
  • Practitioners that utilize service-learning understand that the process of identifying community needs, giving students an active role in designing, implementing, and evaluating the project and encouraging students to reflect on their learning allows young people to develop new understandings and applications beyond what they would gain from typical classroom instruction.
  • Cleaning up a river is service.Sitting in a science classroom, looking at water samples under a microscope is learning.Students taking samples from local water sources, analyzing the samples, documenting the results and presenting scientific findings to a local pollution control agency is service-learning.
