Curriculum

2012!  The year for global Innovation and Entrepreneurship!  

Our focus on environmental studies and student's use of multimedia will not change, but we are adding an entirely new dimension to 21st Century Schools.  The world is changing rapidly, and so must we, if we wish to maintain our status as the most cutting edge providers of curriculum and professional development.  We know how students learn, and we can assist your classroom, school, district, state or yes, even your entire country in making the step into the new millennium.  This focus will teach us how to teach others - not only our students, but our citizens - to become more innovative and entrepreneurial!

2011 brought us so many wonderful opportunities to see the world, to meet and work with educators from many countries, and to develop our own personal Global Competencies.  Visit our blog to see where we've been! 

New Advisory Board Member!

We are honored to announce that Dr. Sugata Mitra has accepted our invitation to serve on the Advisory Board for 21st Century Schools!  Please hear his talks at TED, and watch the CNN video on how his famous Hole in the Wall experiment was the inspiration for the multiple Academy Award winning film, Slumdog Millionaire.

Go to our Lessons from Turkey page to view the videos of Dr. Mitra's presentation in Ankara, a video of him talking about the project being made into a film, and the CNN video report on the project - see actual film clips of the children using the computer in the Hole in the Wall.

Food and Culture

 - a global, collaborative classrooms project!  All content standards - all grade levels - and for all countries!

Let your students learn with the world, not just about the world!

Please join our new Global, Collaborative Classrooms Project - Food and Culture.  It's not just for Family and Consumer Science - we are building in everything from environmental studies to financial literacy and economics, agriculture, health, history, cultural studies, geography, and much more.  This is a chance for your students to develop critical global competencies by studying with the world, not just about the world! 

Our goal with the Food and Culture Project is the same as the One Day on Earth Project - have at least one class from every country participating!  Please join us!
