=21st Century Skills = = **Implementation Guide** =

Now that many schools are moving toward te 21st Century Skills, I'm puting together resources to help with the implementation.


 * OFFICIAL RESOURCES:**
 * List of Publications:**Take a look at:
 * the MILE Guides, these will definitely help you see where your school is located on the 21st Century Skills Rubric so that you can plan.
 * the 21st Century Skills Maps, these help integrate the 21st Century themes into the curriculum.
 * the ICT Literacy Maps, these help integrate technology into the core subject areas.

For me, these **OFFICIAL RESOURCES** provide agreat starting point. I, however, would like something more concrete and specific. This is why I have been working on the following resources.

NOTE
===**THESE ARE NOT THE OFFICIAL STANDARDS FOR 21st CENTURY SKILLS!** ===


The purpose of theis project is to come up with similar documention for the REAL documentation. I really would appreciate help in completing this project. Please drop me a email to request access and begin to collaborate.




 * SAMPLE IMPLEMENTATION PLAN:** Vermont Schools template, filled out for schools in general.


 * POWER STANDARDS:** Addresses the major areas of the 21st Century Skills.
 * Life and Career Skills
 * Learning and Innovation Skills
 * Information, Media and Technology Skills
 * Core Subjects and 21st Century Themes

This way both vertical and horizontal articulation of the curriculum can be more clearly tracked.
 * ESSENTIAL SKILLS:** Helps identify skills and content per grade level.
 * Language Arts
 * Math
 * Science
 * Social Studies
 * Computers
 * Art
 * Music
 * Physical Education
