the highest level of technology and any STEM discipline. It is the
ultimate level of competence and performance in the world, which would
effect everything, from the job creation to the economic demand and

situated one step ahead of, or at least on the same step as the
students being taught. It is also understanding where the students are
technologically, and being able to add to there knowledge, as well as
fix fproblems they are having.

The driving force for the 21st century is the intellectual capital of
citizens.
Political, social, and economic advances in the United States during
this
millennium will be possible only if the intellectual potential of
America’s youth is
developed now. It should be no surprise that what students learn—as
well as
how they learn it and how often they must refresh these skills sets—is
changing.

So, I think of creativity and innovation, communication and
collaboration, research and fluency, critical thinking, problem
solving and decision making, digital citizenship, and technology
operations and concepts.

learned and are currently comfortable with and store it. 21st Century
skills are evovling everyday and are not just computers. It is the
integration of programs and tools to assist in student and teacher
learning. I would also continue with the mere fact that they seem
overwhelming, but the only thing they need to remember is to take baby
steps and it will all become easier as you go along. Dont be scared
and remember that these skills will infact make your life as an
educator easier.

share and then integrate our information from our varied professional
interests..for students, it's about how to use that information to
become better global citizens, and for parents, how to understand what
their children are doing, relieve their fears, and how they can become
technologically involved.

21st Century skills are those that support innovative and creative
problem solving in a diverse global community. They include the
ability to think abstractly, generalize and make connections. They
also include the ability to learn and use new technologies as they
emerge. Someone versed in 21st century skills is someone who will be
able to easily adapt to new careers several times over the course of
their lives, someone who is self-motivated and engaged with their
community, who has the cultural fluency to communicate across a wide
variety of cultures.

I believe that 21st Century skills include recognizing the different
learning styles of students and becoming more flexible in our teaching
so that all students can succeed. Because we are living in such a
fast-paced world, our kids need to know how to learn independently.
It is our responsibility as the educator to teach them how to do this
safely. 21st Century skills also include being competent with
technology and learning how to integrate it into our curriculums.

What are 21 century skills?
collaborating, communication, problem solving, critical thinking
flexibility due to rapid changes
dealing with the abundance of information
initiative and self-direction
social and cross cultural skills
All of the above should be used in today's classrooms and businesses.
If students do not become comfortable with these skills they are going
to have a hard time in school and work.

They enable us to give our students access to the world and to steer
their exploration of the world and their own learning.
They encourage problem solving, innovation, character development,

21st Century skills and learning has turned away from memorizing facts
and information, and looks instead at how to evaluate and use this
massive amount of information to problem solve. 21st Century learning
is inquiry, which involves learning to ask questions that will help
you get at a solution. It involves finding information and deciding
whether or not it is of value to the problem solving process.
Learners need to be able to communicate their thinking with others as
they collaborate. This is the most important piece.

21st century skills are basically tools that enhance everything that
we do in our lives. In the classroom, they allow for students to
communicate and show their learning through the use of technology.
Instead of the old and basic (overhead, pencil, paper, chalkboard),
students can now enhance those through technology. To have 21st
Century skills again is the enhancement of skills that we have now and
making them more accessible to others. It is making things digital
and always available for someone to see that is not in the room.
For instance, when my students took their spelling tests this year, I
no longer had them taking a test on paper, they were taking them in
their google docs account and then sending them to me. This meant I
could grade at home and didn’t have to carry a duffle bag of papers
home. Once I graded them and save the comments, students could get on
and correct anything. It was instant gratification for me and the
students. 21st century skills made my teaching accessible and also
enhanced what was already being done.

If someone asks you what are the 21st century skills, how would you
answer them today?
I think that the skills that are needed revolve around: access. Some
of the technologies that are emerging would enable students to
collect, record, post, publish their work immediately to an electronic
format. Using iphones for example could help students get information
in the field, collect and analyze data and even get experts opinions
and information. Mobile apps are constantly changing and becoming
more relevant and educationally sound. Students will need to be
taught how to find information and be able to use new technologies.

A fresh response, 18 days later after reading various articles for
the prompts and contemplating responses from colleagues in this course
it seems that the common understanding of 21st century skills are the
capacity and willingness to learn and implement interactive internet
technologies in the classroom across the curriculum. What is
concerning to me is that these touted tools seem to effectively engage
students so that classroom management is no longer a large concern,
yet I have not heard any mention of deepening community or generosity
or connection with each other in classrooms that are touted as based
on 21st century skills, not have I witnessed anything but a
diminishment in listening skills and teens grasp of the basic
mechanics of written language among those who have been in these tech
oriented 2.0 classrooms.

Currently, my feelings about 21st Century Skills are skills that need
to be taken in small doses. There seem to be so many sources and
resources that are available, it can become overwhelming. I feel that
there are a multitude of tools to assist students with broadening
their skills for learning. The 21st Century Tools allow them to
explore branches and go deeper into the concepts which are being

21st century skills are the knowledge of using new technology as an
essential way to do the tasks we need to do. These tools might be a
netbook, a GPS, a digital camera, a flip camera, an IPad, an IPod,
IPhone, digital readers, etc. It is also the knowledge of using
online tools like google docs, wikis, skype to collaborate with others
on a project. It is the collaboration with people on a global
scale. 21st ctr skills could be developping a portfolio online using
a blog or a google site to share with others. It is also the skill of
learning how to use new technology and tools on your own, be flexible
and creative with all this technology.

The tools utilized enable individuals to interact and work collaboratively with one another, despite differences in geological locations. The world is literally at one’s fingertips; we just need the guidance as to how to access this fast moving ever changing technology.

An important component of 21sst century education is to teach the
moral and ethical responsibilities (and unfortunately the dangers)
that accompany the available sites of information

I'm now thinking of my role as a teacher in this 21st century role:
facilitator, co-learner, modeler. I want to give my students tools so
that they can teach others and function as independent learners.

21st Century skills are all of the technology skills that we are being
introduced to in this class. 21st Century skills are a total
transformation in teaching (for me). 21st Century skills will link our
students to the world.

"Up here in Alaska"??? whisky tango....
So, all of that aside, i:
a.) relish what i undestand 21ct skills to be
b.) resist the big hoopla, and the move away from those ESSENTIAL and
ways of being & teaching skills --in my opinion--are, and how this
21st ctl push may move us away from what i think the true essentials
are.
how i want to explain 21st ct skills:
UbD understanding by design
Inquiry and Constructivism
incorporation of technology
empowering learners
connecting with minimal boundaries, to learning, information,
processes, other worlds, inc. human ones
world is flat, shift happens
information wants to be known; learners don't want to be trained,
restricted, controlled

21st Century Skills include accessing information from a variety of
sources, using a variety of devices, and using various applications
for business and pleasure! Online activities such as gaming can be
used to connect and collaborate on real-life problems. "Flattening"
the world means communicating across cultures, interests, geographical
locations and beyond social and political boundaries. Technology
expands the ability to communicate and present findings and provides a
medium for artistic expression, and a way to acquire goods and
services. Student skills are often ahead of the teacher's.
