21st Century skills should include those practical skills that students need to succeed in the "real" world, not just teaching technology for the "heck" of it.This week we completed a 1040EZ form and FAFSA as part of of our Civics instruction.
What changes can you make in the way you design lessons to include more 21st century skills more often? I have been adding more and more current events to my class, to encourage student participation and make it relevant.
Personal finance is a large part of second semester studies and for many students it has relevance. However, there are also students who do not see any relevance because they are still at home and their parents pay their bills.
No lesson will meet the interets and needs of all students.
