🌟 Discussion: Developing Essential Skills for the Future 🌟
We recently hosted professional learning sessions with both our elementary and secondary cohorts, where we discussed the Top 10 Skills of 2023 from the World Economic Forumâs Future of Jobs Report 2023. 📚â¨
Our discussions highlighted a fascinating observation: these essential skills are the very same skills our students need to succeed in school. This raises important questions for educators and leaders:
🔍Â How are we developing these skills in our students?
🔍Â What strategies are we using to support their growth?
🔍Â How are we providing opportunities for students to practice and refine these skills?
I'd love to hear your thoughts! How are you addressing these skills in your educational setting? Letâs share ideas and inspire each other to better prepare our students for the future. 🌍💡

I was looking at this too and it made me think about how important PBL/CBL activities are in preparing our learners for the future. The open ended nature of these style of activities leads our learners to not only communicate with their peers in the classroom but provided them the chance to communicate with professionals in the field. But most importantly it does give them the chance to think critically and creatively as these activities do not have a singular answer to them. The learning process and creating a solution to a problem without a clear defined answer is key!
If anyone is looking for resources on these kinds of activities, I have provided a few links below.
