Module 7 Activity 1: What is 21st century learning?

This was a very interesting activity that channelled my thoughts on what is involved in 21st century learning. I was able to reflect keenly on my present day practice as an educator and compare it to the suggested key aspects of 21st century learning. I am being reminded by Tony Wagner of the seven survival skills required to address authentic education - the "whole child/person" and which does not limit our professional development and curriculum design to workplace readiness. It is clear that as educators, we need to address a rapidly changing world filled with fantastic new problems as well as exciting new possibilities by being creative and flexible.
