According to [|//eSchool News//] ([]), The Feds released a new educational technology plan on March 5, 2010. After reading this article, I felt it was a good way to start my Portfolio chronicling my experiences with 21st Century skills through the VHS course series. Please take a look at this article which is hyperlinked above. It states, in part:

// “The model of 21st-century learning described in this plan calls for engaging and empowering learning experiences for all learners… Twenty-first century skills and expertise, such as critical thinking, complex problem solving, collaboration, and multimedia communication, should be woven into all contents areas…students should learn in school using the same technology that professionals use in various disciplines. Professionals routinely use the web and tools such as wikis, blogs, and digital content for the research, collaboration, and communication demanded in their jobs….For students, using these real-world tools creates learning opportunities that allow them to grapple with real-world problems—opportunities that prepare them to be more productive members of a globally competitive workforce.” //
