Monday, December 8 from 10:00 - 10:50 at TIES

Vision/Goals/Objectives:

Students are largely on their own when applying online skills and resources to school because they are not covered in the traditional classroom or are addressed at drastically different levels.  Students may be well versed in the standard suite of education applications but technology is quickly moving away from such programs to a more user driven, free, and non-licensed platform.  Although the computer has been a mainstay in the schools since the early eighties, the web and user defined content has pushed technology from a location-based endeavor in the schools (media center) to a integral part of the classroom. learning.21st deliberately taught 21st century learning skills to a population that is increasingly living online but never had a forum to apply knowledge to the academic setting. 

The course, learning.21st, is a nine week elective designed to directly address the use of technology in the classroom and help the students become proficient with a suite of applications and model skills that will help them be better 21st century students.
