26. Our Challenge...
?
How do we create a rigorous,
relevant, student–centered
learning environment
that better prepares all students
for the 21st Century?
27. Time to Collaborate...

Century Skills into your schools?
• What barriers do you foresee in making this
learning environment a reality?
• What things can you do to help your school make
this a reality?
29. Our Kids Are
Different...
• evidence is quickly mounting
from clinical research that our
children’s brains are quickly
adapting to accommodate all the
new technologies with which they
spend so much time – and that’s
because of digital
bombardment, because of the
pervasive nature of digital
experiences in children’s lives
today, children today are also
different neurologically.
