"It takes a village"... to recreate a space for the 21st Century Learner. This blog is documentation of our journey of building a new, vibrant middle school learning center filled with media, print, books, technology, and mentors. Based on three of the 4C's of 21st Century Skills of Creativity, Collaboration and Communication, this center is meant to instill a love of curiosity, innovation, critical thinking and interaction with others. We have lots of people involved in our team: 21st Century Learning/Technology Specialists, Library-Media Specialists, Classroom Teachers, Fine Arts Teachers, Digital Natives--and Immigrants, Administrators AND students!
