Students need

Skills for the

21st century

is not helping in this

it's even preventing

from learning them.

WHY?

Because these skills can't be "taught".

They are acquired when the learning environment supports and rewards from it.

They influence

the students'

idea on what

learning is.

But we know all this,

don't we?

How can we make the change happen?

Just like that?

Collaborative

knowledge

construction

Reflection

Articulation

Scaffolding

Assessment

Too linear
