Curriculum 21 - Mapping the Global Classroom of the Future - About Us - 0 views
-
"Curriculum 21 is the outgrowth of the work of a dynamic group of educators worldwide attempting to help colleagues transform curriculum and school designs to match the needs of 21st century learners. The impetus origniated from the Curriculum Mapping work developed by Dr. Heidi Hayes Jacobs. As we examined maps emerging across the United States and overseas it was evident that curriculum and instruction remains dated although both students and teachers recognize the need to become current and forward thinking in our planning. Concrete and practical models for updating your school programs appear in her upcoming book, Curriculum 21: Essential Education for a Changing World, with ASCD, to be released in January, 2010."

"Our eyes are not on the ball," said Moses. "If we're really serious about child safety, it's not about what's going on online; it's what's going on in their immediate physical environment. Five thousand kids get sent to the hospital every year for scissor injuries, but how many schools have scissors in them? We need to teach kids how to use things safely. You can run a band saw in middle school,but you can't go on the Internet."

Finally, the big question from this session: "Do you want to be a barrier to kids learning, or do you want to work with the learning they're already doing?"

We recently received an email from our superintendent all social networking sites and many other internet sites would be blocked. We are unable to view videos on our computers. My students are unable to play many games on the internet that are educational because of this. We have training in our school on how to teach our students to be safe but we never actually get to show how to use these social networks properly.
