21st Learning and Teaching
What are the important tools we need for 21st century learning and teaching?
List them in the space provided:
Problems & Questions The most powerful learning tools: Questions and
Problems. Learning your P's and Q's.
Questions and the process to uncover their answers Problems and the inventing of their possible solution
Questions and problems are the foundations for the two most powerful approaches humankind has yet developed for gaining new knowledge and creating new ways of living: Science and engineering. p. 91
Imagine the learning power of the right questions at the right time. Basic questions about our natural world and the imaginative search for accurate answers are at the center of the scientific method. Questions lead to research and discovery.
To raise new questions, new possibilities, to regard old problems from a new angle, requires creative imagination and marks real advance in science. Albert Einstein
“Judge a man by his questions rather than his answers.” ~Voltaire
We learn through solving problems. Problems are the foundation to tool making. Engineers and inventors are motivated by challenging problems.
“The difference between what we do and what we are capable of doing would suffice to solve most of the world's problem.”~ Mohandas Gandhi
Applying both scientific and engineering methods to basic questioning and the problems of our times has vastly accelerated the growth of new knowledge, new skill, and the innovations of modern living. p. 92
Questions and problems are also the natural motivators for learning: why? Children commonly ask: why? As adults, to ask why can lead to deeper insight and to further questions that inspire lifelong searches for answers to mysteries still unsolved. p. 93
The learning method based on the power of questions is called inquiry-based learning. It uses the power of designing solutions to problems is design based learning. p. 94
Inquiry learning can turn information into useful knowledge. It stresses skill development and nurtures the development of good habits of mind.
What would a 21st century learning model look like that uses the power of problems and questions? Deep interest, understanding, and caring.

Four Project Phases: Define Plan Do Review
Students gain skills in: creativity & collaboration
The students are most successful when they are taught how to learn as well as what to learn
Deeply engages students in learning
Goes beyond memorization to meaningful understanding
Large learning gains for students with wide ranges of learning styles and backgrounds
Benefits of this powerful learning tool
Chapter 8Retooling Schooling: Reshaping Support
Systems
To create a 21st century school system, these interlinked support systems must
all work together:
How does any school, any district go about transforming 20th century
factory-model school systems into a network of 21st century learning
centers?
Vision Coordination Official policy Leadership Learning technology Teacher learning
21ST CENTURY SKILLSChapter 9:Conclusion
“The real source of wealth and capital in this new era is not material things. It is the human mind, the human spirit, the human imagination, and out faith in the future.

“Big E” “Getting a good education, a decent
job and income in a healthy economy, having affordable and sustainable energy and a healthy environment, and doing all we can to eliminate poverty, the lack of equity between rich and poor and the conflicts in the world caused by such disparities-these are the big issues of our 21st century era.” Trilling, Fadel-pg 156
1. What's the matter? Determining ways to teach and learn with deeper connections and understanding, how to make learning more powerful, how to use tools to benefit the classroom, Learning for life and building a better world.
What are the big ideas?Teach using Problems and questions, Inquiry based learning, Design based learning, 5 Big E’s
2. So what?Students will make emotional connections to what they learn, find ways to understand on a deeper level, and become more comfortable with problem solving strategies.
Great Teachers Enhance Students Become A Great Learner
3. What cares?Students: They will care about what they learn and why.
They will be able to use their learned strategies throughout their life.
Parents: Confidence in their children to become intelligent adults. No one has more concern about a child’s education than the parent.
Teachers: To feel that the future adults will be able to become well rounded workers as they grow and learn. Administrators: To know their students and teachers are providing a well rounded educations to created intelligent adults.
