“Success in the 21st century requires knowing
how to learn. Students today will likely have
several careers in their lifetime. They must
develop strong critical thinking and
interpersonal communication skills in
order to be successful in an increasingly
fluid, interconnected, and complex world.
Technology allows for 24/7 access to
information, constant social interaction,
and easily created and shared digital
content.
In this setting, educators can leverage
technology to create an engaging and
personalized environment to meet the
emerging educational needs of this generation.
No longer does learning have to be one-size-
fits-all or confined to the classroom. The
opportunities afforded by technology should be
used to re-imagine 21st-century education,
focusing on preparing students to be learners
for life.
