21st+Century+Learning



Educators are entrusted and held accountable for student learning. This becomes an issue when we take into consideration that we have a very diverse student population. According to Schrum and Solomon, “An ongoing challenge for all schools is to provide an equal opportunity to learn and achieve to all students.” (Web 2.0 New Schools, New Tools, 2007). As an educator I would also like to add student engagement and interest to the list of concerns facing an everyday teacher.

Teachers must prepare students for life in the 21st century. Technology has opened many doors.

One method that I think greatly aids students in learning is an online book. It is easy to create, while students are provided with another mode of instruction. All learners can benefit from this kind of instruction, and it even accommodates to meet the needs of learners that are visually or hearing impaired. The UDL Book Builder site comes with audio while a computer can easily be adjusted to increase the view. For more information on this topic click on the following link. []
