"[...] Just like selecting targeted power standards, you should also select 21st century skills to grade and assess. My top 3 are collaboration, presentation and critical thinking, but of course technology literacy is always a popular one. Just remember that you must teach what you intend to assess.[...]" Via Monica Mirza, William Machado Delete the scoop?

There is little argument that reflective writing is a good way to foster critical thinking, encourage self expression, and give students a sense of ownership of their work (Chretien et al. 2012, Kennison and Misselwitz, 2002).

There are many learning models that we may explore, and this one is presented a bit differently than others I have seen. Quoting from the post "The goal of the model is simple enough–not pure academic proficiency, but instead authentic self-knowledge, diverse local and global interdependence, adaptive critical thinking, and adaptive media literacy." There are nine domains in this model (listed below) and the post provides additional information. * Five Learning Actuators * Changing Habits * Transparency * Self-Initiated Transfer * Mentoring and Community * Changing Roles * Climate of Assessment * Thought and Abstraction * Expanding Literacies

Las características reflejadas en el esquema y explicadas en el artículo sobre el modelo de enseñanza en el siglo XXI, están íntimamente ligadas a la tendencia BYOD, como se refleja en el rol que videojuegos, la curación de contenidos, el cambio de papel de "estudiante receptor" a "estudiante creador de conocimiento", implicación en la enseñanza de todos los entornos del estudiante o la actuación del profesor como curador y guía en el conocimiento-aprendizaje de los alumnos.

How do you assess 21st century skills? This post explores this issue and sugests that "the term 'assessment' needs to be examined. "At its core, assessment should be thought of as an opportunity to give feedback. Without giving students specific, targeted feedback on how they are performing these skills, students will have little opportunity to understand how to improve their level of creativity, become better researchers through increased information literacy skills, become better at collaborating with groups for project creation and problem solving, or develop good habits of mind to become self-directed learners." The question then becomes how do we effectively assess these skills? What criteria should be used? The post provides some suggestions as well as links to a number of resources.

iPads are "wondrous little devices capable of enchanting learners for hours, to get the learning results you’re likely after will take planning, design, and reflection." This post discusses four areas of instruction and instructional design that will help you integrate iPad in the classroom. The four areas are each followed by three bullet points. See each area below, with one of the bullet points listed. Click through to the article for more information. * Curriculum is Adaptive (as in less rigid). There are "Learning pathways, embedded differentiation and personalization, culturally and cognitively responsive tasks and work that honors constructivist thinking and doing over passivity and compliance." * Instruction is diverse (as in less uniform). "With access to a nearly infinite number of digital domains, instruction will have to adapt in parallel, including peer-to-peer, student-to-student, school-to-school learning; mastery-based learning via apps such as the Khan Academy." * Assessment is Frequent and Formative (as in less intermittent and summative). "A climate of assessment that yields simple data digestible to all stakeholders–including the teacher." * Integrated with Relevant Communities (as in purely academic, or forced, awkward audiences–for the love of everything, please no more letters to the principals).
