The Partnership has forged alliances with key national organizations that represent the core academic subjects, including Social Studies, English, Math, Science and Geography.  As a result of these collaborations, the Partnership has developed this map to illustrate the intersection between 21st Century Skills and Social Studies.  The maps will enable educators, administrators and policymakers to gain concrete examples of how 21st Century Skills can be integrated into core subjects.

TPCK Talking about technology integration in the classroom, let alone implementing it, can be difficult initially. It's a complex topic with a lot of nuance. Overly focusing on technology can lead to use which doesn't support learning and SOLs which is a waste of everyone's time and energy. The TPCK model clarifies things. It honors key elements of a great classroom. Technology, pedagogy and content knowledge. The overlap of these three components is where the 21st Century classroom is most powerful.

The Initiative believes that the more that is discovered about how the brain works and the various motives which drive human behaviour, the more we are convinced that education has to be about much more than intellectual development, and that learning and schooling are certainly not necessarily synonymous. What politicians and commentators in many lands describe as being "a crisis in schools" is, we believe, better understood as a crisis in society's commitment to young people. All this is aggravated by a materialistic agenda that degrades the spiritual needs of individuals and nations to the single minded drive towards economic profitability.

20 web 2.0 tools for teachers, by Simon Ward

has been set up to provide an opportunity for students, teachers, administrators, parents, and others to help promote an understanding of the benefits of educational blogging. The menu for the website is to the left. Please explore AND contribute. This website is actually a "wiki," which means that it is hoped that you will contribute to the content of this website.

Our goal is to provide examples of differentiated lessons and student activities to inspire you. We post the examples here and provide the source/reference. This is so that we do not loose these wonderful examples because links are no longer valid. These differentiation resources are used in a middle school or high school classroom.

Feel free to click on any of these links to explore exciting tools for getting your young learners to love learning a language!

A Publication of the 3C Collaborative: This manual presents materials through which teachers/counselors in all subjects can help students define and understand the skills they will need in their careers, post-secondary education and as citizens. It begins with an overview of 38 skills grouped into ten categories, followed by a Student Skills Assessment of the 38 skills that teachers/counselors can introduce at any stage in a high school student's program. This is followed by guidelines for teacher/counselors evaluations of the Student Skills compact lessons for each skill and includes a plan for which students can use to practice and continue to assess their development of each skill.

A new sort of tools - and a new sort of ethics - are required for the next generation of students to succeed in the face of global challenges. Come explore how social media can be used by educators to effect positive social change. See examples of how teachers have collaborated with colleagues, connected their classrooms to others around the globe, and helped to bring green initiatives to their schools and communities. Discover how students too can use powerful (and often free) tools to tap into their own passions, bring new relevance to their learning, and make a real difference in their world.
