21st Century Learners

Build Understanding the essential characteristics of 21st Century Classrooms

Feedback from English Learner Stakeholders

Common Core Standards are Here to Stay!

But we already have standards… why change?

College and Career Readiness

Too many students are not prepared to succeed in the 21st century…

In 2010, 23,600 of 47,900 college freshman in the California University system required remedial courses in English, math or BOTH.

The CCSS focus is to guarantee that all students are college and career ready as they exit from high school.

Additional Resources

Knowledge of core content is no longer sufficient.

Even if all students mastered core academic subjects, they still would be underprepared to succeed in college and career.

Students need 21st Century Skills!

21st Century Skills7

21st Century Learning will

provide our students with the skills they need to be successful in school and.... in the world in which they will live and work when they leave our schools.

WHERE DO WE BEGIN?

So what changes are needed in our schools for NMCUSD students to think and problem solve like Audri?
