A Vision of K-12 Students Today

This is my favorite video about how students in the 21st century learn. It's worth your time to watch this cleverly designed video montage.

This project was created to inspire teachers to use technology in engaging ways to help students develop higher level thinking skills. Equally important, it serves to motivate district level leaders to provide teachers with the tools and training to do so.

A Vision of Students Today

I thought this video was thought provoking enough to be worth your time. It's not very long, but you have to be a pretty fast reader to get all of the info.

This is a short video summarizing some of the most important characteristics of students today - how they learn, what they need to learn, their goals, hopes, dreams, what their lives will be like, and what kinds of changes they will experience in their lifetime. Created by Michael Wesch in collaboration with 200 students at Kansas State University.
