Gust MEES's curator insight, February 24, 5:33 PM

As teachers, we cannot remain behind our desks or in our classrooms, isolated and unsupported. It's not good for our students, our teaching, or ourselves.

 

PLCs give us the opportunity to collaborate and share our expertise, collectively tackling our students' needs. If we use them strategically, they can make a big difference in how we approach our work.

9 Characteristics Of 21st Century Learning - Minus Technology!

9 Characteristics Of 21st Century Learning - Minus Technology! | Engagement Based Teaching and Learning | Scoop.it

What does it mean when you say 21st century learning? This post lists nine characteristics of 21st century learning and provides a rationale. What makes this notable is "the absence of technology. There is very little about iPads, social media, 1:10 laptops, or other tech-implementation. In that way, it is closer to the 'classic' approach to 'good learning' than it is the full-on digital fare we often explore."

The nine characteristics are in the diagram above and listed below:

Learner-centered, Media-driven, Personalized, Tranfer-by-Design, Visibly Relevant, Data-Rich, Adaptable, Interdependent and Diverse.
