Today’s educators are constantly evaluating the skills students need to compete in the global economy.
But what are the characteristics or skills needed to be an effective 21st-century educator? We recently asked readers: “What are the qualities of an effective 21st-century educator?” Here are our readers’ top responses.
You might have heard that an effective 21st-century educator should be a “guide on the side,” not a “sage on the stage,” but according to readers, there’s much more to it than that.
For instance, one of the most common responses from readers was that 21st-century educators must be lifelong learners … and should be willing to learn not only from their peers, but from their students as well.
According to readers, an effective 21st-century educator…

Teaching safety and responsibility on the internet
After the long summer break, the new academic year starts and PROTEGELES, the Spanish Awareness Centre, will present its new project on ‘Safety and responsibility on the internet’ in the Spanish network of schools, SEK.
The institution International School SEK is a chain of schools with presence in several autonomous communities in Spain, as well as abroad (in France and Ireland). The schools are pioneering the use of ICT in the learning process in Spain, providing one computer per student and other technological tools for learning, such as digital boards, in every classroom. More recently, they have introduced digital desks for the youngest pupils also.
The educational approach of SEK is based on the principle of effective communication between teachers and students by using channels and codes which are attractive for children and young people.

Turning Digital Natives into Digital Citizens
Today’s K–12 students are commonly called “digital natives” because they have grown up with digital technology. But natives can run wild, using the Internet to (wittingly or unwittingly) plagiarize others’ work or bully peers using social media. Now, educators are teaching digital natives how to become good digital citizens. As defined by federal officials in the recently released National Education Technology Plan and by educators in the National Educational Technology Standards for Students (NETS), model digital citizens “practice safe, legal, and ethical use of digital information and tools.”
While cyberbullying remains a concern, teachers are helping students investigate the weighty issue of intellectual property rights in order to keep them within legal and ethical bounds. Using websites as well as their own tools, they are helping students understand important concepts such as fair use and copyright, and are also helping them see the relevance in these topics by learning how to protect their own digital work.
