Sum m ary
21st Century learning skills and strategies need to be the norm in
todays classroom. Education is critical for our survival as a
nation and as humans. As the world evolves so do the
complexity of problems and solutions. Our education system
needs a major revamping in order to better prepare our students
to be prepared to enter any organization and have an
immediate impact. Integrating a curriculum that challenges ,
prepares and stimulates students is our responsibility as
educators and community leaders. When students leave high
school without the necessary skills to be successful we as
educators are swift to pin it on the student. We blame their
inability to learn or to comprehend the material presented.
Perhaps an evaluation as educators is needed to remind
ourselves that we serve and teach for the students. We are the
solution and subject matter experts. Use your God given talent
