As we are approaching the end of the first decade of the 21st Century, we are still trying to figure out what 21st century skills, learning, and workforce should be or look like. The Partnership for 21st Century Skills Consortium has done a great job in developing the framework, fostering the national discourse on the needs for 21st century skills and learning, and expanding its reach through its consultation and assistance to state education agencies in their learning standards revisions or updates. I would like to know how our educational leaders, especially technology savy leaders have envisioned the new learning environment and what operationalized 21st century schools or learning would or should look like and where we can find some preliminary model(s) of practices around us for reference. To some extent, I believe that you can not wait for a 21st century learning model to take a shape and rather you should make it happen through experiment and innovation. Who would be in a better position to do so than this group of experienced and talented educational leaders on the Island?
