How do you want your child to be online? What will his/her digital footprint look like? How should children behave in digital platforms? We always seem to focus on the things that we do not want our kids to do. For a change, let's ponder what we want them to do online. Let's think about the positive ways our children and students can interact with technology. The International Society for Technology Education or ISTE has come up with 5 key competencies that 21st century learners should all possess. Listeners will gain insight to each competency via conversations with CCPS experts Doug Fordham, Kelsey Pacer, Laurie Surles, Teresa Woodroof, and Suzanne Heath. This podcast will give the listener positive ideas for helping shape their personal tech use and that of their children.
I discuss the idea that the 21st Century Learner is not only better able to cope with modern technology but that they need modern technology to learn optimally. This idea is a myth and I explain what we know from the research. 21st Century Learners are negatively impacted when using modern technology to learn.

This week, Ken Steele speaks with 10 university presidents and 2 senior administrators about the ways in which universities are evolving to meet the needs of 21st Century Learners. While it's certainly fair to argue that the core principles of a university education are timeless, in general university programs, services and campuses are evolving in a time of labour market uncertainty, interdisciplinarity, active learning classrooms, experiential and work-integrated learning, and new technology. Institutions are trying to be responsive to student expectations, employer demands, and government requirements. Preparing today's students for careers can also involve entrepreneurial training, since 40% of jobs are projected to be freelance by 2020.
