The document discusses the changing nature of literacy and learning in the 21st century. It argues that literacy now involves more than just reading, and that students must learn to learn, unlearn, and relearn throughout their lives. It also discusses how students and texts are changing in the digital age, with students now being constantly connected and interacting in social, digital environments. The document puts forward a vision of 21st century literacy that involves skills like being a lifelong learner, natural navigator, critical thinker and evaluator, effective communicator and creator, and effective global collaborator.
