Top Challenge: "There is a growing need for formal instruction
in key new skills, including information literacy,
visual literacy, and technological literacy. The
skills involved in writing and research have
changed from those required even a few years
ago. Students need to be technologically adept,
to be able to collaborate with peers all over the
world, to understand basic content and media
design, and to understand the relationship between
apparent function and underlying code in
the applications they use daily."

21st-century-skills tech-fluency outcomes integrative ISP

  • The integrative outcomes represent the outcomes faculty has identified as important to student learning, outcomes they identified as being valuable, and outcomes they want students to be able to demonstrate. They also represent the general education principles. The outcomes are purposefully broad to allow faculty latitude in more specifically identifying outcomes that match the intent of their individual courses.
  • The purpose of the three sets of outcomes is to provide students exposure to all the outcomes in many contextual settings so that they see how these outcomes are connected to the process of engaging in intellectual inquiry, rather than how the three sets of outcomes relate to one another. The three sets of outcomes are integral to student development. In all courses in the program, students will see what the disciplinary or interdisciplinary outcomes are, what the skills expectations are and what the integrative outcomes are. Each syllabus will identify these. It won't take students long to see how these outcomes are connected to the process of engaging in intellectual inquiry.

The NCTE Definition of 21st Century Literacies

    • Literacy has always been a collection of cultural and communicative practices shared among members of particular groups. As society and technology change, so does literacy. Because technology has increased the intensity and complexity of literate environments, the twenty-first century demands that a literate person possess a wide range of abilities and competencies, many literacies. These literacies—from reading online newspapers to participating in virtual classrooms—are multiple, dynamic, and malleable. As in the past, they are inextricably linked with particular histories, life possibilities and social trajectories of individuals and groups. Twenty-first century readers and writers need to

      • Develop proficiency with the tools of technology
         
      • Build relationships with others to pose and solve problems collaboratively and cross-culturally
         
      • Design and share information for global communities to meet a variety of purposes
         
      • Manage, analyze and synthesize multiple streams of simultaneous information
         
      • Create, critique, analyze, and evaluate multi-media texts
         
      • Attend to the ethical responsibilities required by these complex environments

City Brights: Howard Rheingold : 21st Century Literacies

"Will our grandchildren grow up knowing how to pluck the answer to any question out of the air, summon their social networks to assist them personally or professionally, organize political movements and markets online? Will they collaborate to solve problems, participate in online discussions as a form of civic engagement, share and teach and learn to their benefit and that of everyone else?

Or will they grow up knowing that the online world is a bewildering puzzle to which they have few clues, a dangerous neighborhood where their identities can be stolen, a morass of spam and porn, misinformation and disinformation, urban legends, hoaxes, and scams? I have collected evidence over the past several decades that suggests the humanity or toxicity of next year's digital culture depends to a very large degree on what we know, learn, and teach each other about how to use the one billion Internet accounts and four billion mobile phones available today.
