21st century learning is a myth

12/3/2013

What is the true intent of 21st Century education?  Are the skills being taught that much different than what was aspired to in the past?  Is there a fundamental difference between education five to ten years ago vs. today?  Are today's veteran educators aware of the paradigm shift being discussed?

My questions are prompted by the #ohedchat conversation last night (12/1/13) focused on 21st Century learning.  I watched curiously as the answers to questions filled the column I have dedicated to #ohedchat in Tweetbot.   Rather than dive in head first last night with comments I sat back to observe what others are saying.  I've discussed this topic with others F2F and online.  I was hoping for something new to jump out at me, something I had not thought of, nothing new for me surfaced.

Until we can shift the current paradigm from teacher centered to student centered, 21st Century learning is a myth.
