Education for the 21st Century

Here are some follow-up resources [and questions] from tonight's parent workshop:

• Vision for K-12
• BC Ministry of Education's vision for 21st Century Learning
• "Seven Essential Skills"
• Carson Graham (Grade 12 student presentation)
• Carisbrooke Elementary (Grade 6,7 student presentation)

Questions for discussion:
- What did you hear/see that was new to you?
- What type of education do you want for your child (as in the first link)?
- Do you think this movement will create a better society? Comments/concerns
- What does it mean for parents?
- What needs to happen to keep the momentum?
- Other thoughts??
