<p>Praise for 21st Century Skills</p> <p>"Trilling and Fadel describe in very readable, practical terms how to infuse 21st century skills from standards all the way into the classroom. The DVD is full of wonderful 'a-ha' moments to illustrate the possibilities. A terrific traveling companion for educators, parents, and business and government decision makers concerned about the future of our kids." --Paige Johnson, 2009 Chair of the Partnership for 21st Century Skills; Global K-12 Manager, Intel Corporation</p> <p>"Hooray to Bernie Trilling and Charles Fadel for demystifying 21st century skills. Thisbook makes clear why education must change: to help prepare students to meet complex challenges, fulfill their civic responsibilities, and live fulfilling lives. Full of crisp descriptions, 21st Century Skills persuasively shows why policymakers and educators should run--not walk--to implement 21st century learning designs. As Trilling and Fadel simply put it, it's time to give all students the chance to learn how to build a better world."--John Wilson, executive director, National Education Association</p> <p>"Trilling and Fadel lay out a comprehensive understanding of what is meant by 21st century skills. Read this book with a note pad--you'll be jotting down ideas for how to use the information in your school district. A must-read for superintendents, curriculum directors, and teachers." --Anne L. Bryant, executive director, National School Boards Association</p> <p>"Trilling and Fadel take the 21st century skills debate beyond rhetoric, providing a substantive, compelling, and engaging argument for the skills and competencies that our children need to succeed in a Knowledge Age economy. The skills they describe are the essential lifeblood of a productive, engaged, and intelligent citizenry--this book is a must-read for skeptics and enthusiasts alike!"--Margaret Honey, president and CEO, New York Hall of Science</p>
