21st Century Schools for 21st Century Students

An Innovative Workshop for K-12 Teachers and Administrators

What are the critical characteristics and multiple literacies that move our schools from the 20th Century into the 21st Century? This workshop explores the paradigm shift and essential steps needed to adequately prepare millennium students for their future through interactive, collaborative exercises, technology information, and a model interdisciplinary lesson. Topics include brain compatible learning, Depth of Knowledge, 21st Century Skills, and the move from STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) to STEAM ( incorporating Arts with the STEM areas). The Mississippi Alliance for Arts Education, which advocates for balanced curriculum and rich arts experiences for all students in Mississippi, presents this workshop.
 

MAAE is partnering with the Regional Service Centers, MDE, and the Kennedy Center to offer the 2009-2010 Workshop Series entitled 21st Century Schools for 21st Century Students.  These photos capture some of the memorable activities at workshops hosted by D.M. Smith Middle School in Cleveland on February 20, and Oak Park Elementary School in Laurel on March 6, with presenters Dr. Penny Wallin, Dr. Evon Kincaid, Linda Wilson, and Teaching Artist Limeul Eubanks.
