Shifting to 21st Century Thinking

The term ’21st century learning’ is a kind of shorthand for what needs to be different in schools if young people are to be well prepared for life in the Knowledge Age.

This website from the New Zealand Council for Educational Research (NZCER) provides ideas, tools, and resources for helping people make the shift from 20th century to 21st century ways of thinking about learning. It provides a space for theory and practice to interact, for theory to inform practice, and practice to inform theory from the perspectives of people actually involved in the educational profession around the world.

Everything you will find here is underpinned by a theoretical framework. The intention is to help educators build a bridge between 20th century theories and practices, and 21st century theories and practices.
