"What skills and attributes will allow young people to succeed in the new global economy? This volume addresses the question by examining the topic of twenty-first century learning. Twenty-first century learning frames an increasingly relevant and vital national conversation aabout what young people need in order to achieve: critical thinking, problem-solving, innovation, and communications skills. The chapters in this volume provide a broad scope of perspectives--from business leaders, educators, researchers, youth workers, and students--on the need, opportunity, application, and outcomes of twenty-first century learning. The twenty-first century calls us to reimagine the learning day--building partnerships that engage schools, after-school programs, businesses, and community-based organizations--and to embrace both traditional academic basics as well as small group and project-based learning. This volume provides the most comprehensive review to date of this important topic."--Page 4 of cover.
