Challenges and Solutions:
Identify the challenges and potential solutions you see in your own setting. Focus on teaching and learning, professional development and assessment.

What should today's curriculum look like?
In small groups create a presentation using powerpoint or Prezi to outline your own vision of today's learner and 21st Century curriculum.

Choose from these guiding questions:
 * What is 21st Century Learning? How does today's learning differ from traditional models of learning?
 * What differentiates 21st Century curricula from other curricula? What impact do these changes have on how we design curriculum?
 * How do you anticipate your classroom will change? What will we do differently in our classrooms?
 * What kinds of experiences do today's learners need to have?
 * How do we support creative thinking and innovation in our classroom?
 * What resources are available within your school to support your efforts? What attributes will you draw on as you move forward?

Your team is charged with the task of planning and sharing your presentation based on your findings regarding 21st Century learning and students, and information you gather to support the presentation.
