Education 3.0
Curriculum, Pedagogy, and Assessment
21st century classroom practice calls for the integration of innovative pedagogy, curriculum, and assessment strategies across whole systems—accommodating learner differences, linking to the real world, and setting high yet realistic expectations for every student.
With an emphasis on learning by doing, today’s systems must integrate skills and content across the curriculum, help students develop a full range of knowledge and skills, and assess learners appropriately to prepare them for the challenges of today’s society.
Infrastructure and Technology
Today's classroom technologies must be seamlessly integrated into curriculum, pedagogy, and assessment to support 21st century learning.
They must be designed to engage digital learners in their digital world, promote authentic work, and support individual learning styles.
As part of a holistic vision that is lead from the top but owned throughout the system, technologies must be supported by professional development, available in well-designed spaces that promote learning, and implemented at a pace that sustains transformation.
Policies, Procedures, and Management
Well-managed and well-governed school systems must take into account the needs of all stakeholders—students, teachers, parents, and the community—aligning strategy, procedures, and organizational design with educational priorities and reviewing on a regular basis.
To govern effectively, leaders must make innovation and learning central to their own work. They must demonstrate the system’s core values and consistently communicate that every stakeholder shares in the mission to improve learning.
Leadership, People, and Culture
Leaders throughout the system must model and champion the vision, using transparent processes to make decisions and promoting a culture of openness.
They must be sophisticated consumers of cutting-edge research and open to new ideas, including innovations from outside education.
All leadership activity must be focused on ensuring a continuous improvement cycle and maximizing learning outcomes—using data to drive decision-making, promoting sustainability and scalability, and integrating ongoing staff development at all levels.
Education 3.0
Education 3.0 is the first systematic attempt to detail the critical components of 21st century education and explain how systems can begin their journey of transformation.
It is the first change model that integrates “best-of-the-best” research findings to help students flourish in the 21st century.
