There is a profound gap between the knowledge and skills most students learn in school and the knowledge and skills they need in typical 21st century communities and workplaces.
The Partnership for 21st Century Skills
Students [should] use digital media and environments to communicate and work collaboratively, including at a distance, to support individual learning and contribute to the learning of others.
ISTE National Educational Technology Standards for Students
Students [should] interact, collaborate, and publish with peers, experts, or others employing a variety of digital environments and media.
ISTE National Educational Technology Standards for Students
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.
NCTE Definition of 21st Century Literacies
These literacies. . . are multiple, dynamic, and malleable.
NCTE Definition of 21st Century Literacies
The 21st century world is media saturated, technologically dependent, and globally connected.
NCSS Position Statement on Media Literacy
We live in a multimedia age where the majority of information people receive comes less often from print sources and more typically from highly constructed visual images, complex sound arrangements, and multiple media formats.
NCSS Position Statement on Media Literacy
The Internet and the everyday use of social networking technologies . . . also require us as social studies educators to link participatory media literacy with civic education.
NCSS Position Statement on Media Literacy
In the twenty-first century, participatory media education and civic education are inextricable.

The illiterate of the 21st century will not be those who cannot read or write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn and relearn.

In times of rapid change, the learners inherit the earth, while the learned find themselves beautifully equipped to deal with a world that no longer exists.

How do we help students create their own Personal Learning Networks?
Knowledge resides in the network.
Students need to know how to find that knowledge, whether it’s from the teacher down the hall, on a server in Indiana or in a human brain in India.
We are moving from
“do your own work” to “work with others”
“just in case” to “just in time” learning
“hand it in” to “publish it” - Will Richardson
What should students know and be able to do?
What should students (and their network connections) know and be able to do?
'What can you do?' has been replaced with 'What can you and your network connections do?' Knowledge itself is moving from the individual to the individual and his contacts.

build networks
go global
Increasingly, those who use technology in ways that expand their global connections are more likely to advance, while those who do not will find themselves on the sidelines.
-2009 Horizon Report
With the growing availability of tools to connect learners and scholars all over the world — online collaborative workspaces, social networking tools, mobiles, voice-over-IP, and more — teaching and scholarship are transcending traditional borders more and more all the time.

Two billion potential teachers.
Five billion potential teachers by 2020.
