We live in a global, knowledge-based economy. Students must master vital 21st century skills to survive in the world beyond the classroom. They must be able to
• research using the Internet,
• assess information,
• work collaboratively,
• communicate effectively,
• think critically and creatively.
I have organized the Web 2.0 sites using some of these 21st century skills. Many of the Web 2.0 applications incorporate more than one skill. These tools can help us realize the different ways critical 21st century skills can be developed in the classroom.
