23^rd Year into the 21^st Century

 

Inspiration can be found in big and small measures throughout educational processes in schools.  These measures evolve from dynamic curriculum, motivating leadership and innovative thinking by teachers and school administrators.  This is aspirational thinking determined to create a safe environment, prosperous future and a fulfilling livelihood for everyone in our society.

Modeling resilience and fortitude by teachers to help students achieve goals and objectives, is a measure of inspiration that is part of the education process.  Educators bring forth learning opportunities, in the classroom, that lead to accomplishments in the real-world. It develops personal attributes like confidence, empathy and a sense of worth, while sustaining long-term educational gains.

Collaborative and cooperative learning opportunities provide another measure of inspiration as students access advanced world-wide digital platforms to communicate with peers and utilize interactive online software resources. The goal is to gather data, analyze experimental results and present conclusions or discoveries.

 It is the hallmark of 21^st century education to push the envelope of achievement by integrating a wealth of knowledge, online, and utilize this sophisticated scientific analysis to manage projects, develop experimentation, quantify outcomes and communicate results to international audiences.

Large measures of inspiration are based upon working toward achieving large goals. These goals are reached by experiencing learning opportunities in schools that provide challenges to solve real-world problems like climate change, desertification, availability of fresh water and food security into the future. Efforts by students to address these critical issues, while learning critical life experiences, is the foundation of 21^st century education.

Teachers and administrators that address inspirational measures in school classrooms acknowledge the need for developing critical thinking skills in all students.  These are developed skills and abilities that dictate success into the future for everyone. Analyzing data, questioning outcomes, recognizing problems and formulating solutions are the learned critical thinking skills that students must cognitively develop.  Group collaborative effort is the essential pedagogy needed in the classroom, and it is curriculum that delivers the means for students to become involved in this dynamic 21st century learning process.

I am looking forward to this inspirational and dynamic new year in our school!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
