Goal+1+Home


 * Goal 1 - Facilitate and inspire learning and creativity using existing and emerging technologies**

In order to thrive in the 21st century, students must engage in learning experiences that inspire creativity and innovative thinking. When concepts are taught using real-world scenarios and social and environmental issues, students can witness their relevance. Also, when students are presented with authentic learning situations in a digital environment, they can use these digital tools and 21st century skills to enhance the experience. These tools can be used to collaborate with their peers and experts in the field to solve problems, to synthesize their knowledge, and to present it publicly. My confidence and competence within this goal has flourished because each of my courses at Concordia has driven me to create technology-rich learning experiences that promote the use of 21st century skills. As I implement these activities into my classroom, I see the level of student engagement and creativity rise, and their critical thinking and collaborative skills improve. Therefore, I am able to continuously challenge them at new and greater levels.
