Description
Preparing future-ready learners has become a central theme embedded in educational reform initiatives. So, what are 21st century skills? How are such skills taught and assessed? Creative product development may hold the key to addressing these questions. This session examines the use of products for assessing student progress, presents strategies for organizing creative product development in the classroom, and details a sampling of 21st century products that allow students to demonstrate both their knowledge in a domain and those essential process skills necessary for success in their future.
