Educating our 21st Century Learners

… the researchers found that the internet is empowering a tech-savvy generation to pursue a central element of 21st–century education – self-directed learning, performed on kids’ own terms and time schedules. - MacArthur Foundation, Kids’ Informational Learning with Digital Media, 2009

In the Web 2.0 world, self-directed learners must be adept at building and sustaining networks.

Closing Slide

Life can be like a roller coaster...And just when you think you've had enough,and you’re ready to get off the ride and take the calm, easy merry-go round...

You change your mind, throw you hands in the air and ride the roller coaster all over again

That's exhilaration...that's living a bit on the edge...that's being ALIVE .
