STUDENTS ARE LEARNING HOW TO MICROMANAGE AN ARRAY OF ELEMENTS

WHILE SIMULTANEOUSLY BALANCING SHORT AND LONG TERM GOALS

Teachers in every strata of education are increasingly dealing with a student population that is not only more wired than they are but also grew up in a techno-drenched atmosphere that has trained them to absorb and process information in fundamentally different ways. This generation of students is more likely to be armed with cell phones, laptops, and iPods than with spiral notebooks and No. 2 pencils. Keeping track of how students are learning every moment is part of the teaching process. Knowledge of results and errors made is valuable to effective learning.

Other useful activities for informal evaluation

Let children do some designs on varied games. This is to find out if they have retained what they learned.

Ask children to write a diary about what they learned in school. Inspect all works of a child to monitor whether he/she has

learned something. Always give assignments for enrichment of lessons learned.

Feedback is an informal evaluation. It helps learning because it focuses the learners attention on certain important aspects of the learning process and raises the interest of the child. For this reason, a major task of the teacher is to find outwhether the objective of the lesson had been carried out. Evaluation is bringing together from different sources all forms of information on pupil performance

Characteristics of 21st century

Learners

Two ways by which parents can be involved: as parents of their children and as parents who are concerned about supporting the MG classroom. Both ways of involvement will result in improvement of the children’s performance in school. whether you are a teacher a parent,an aunt or uncle, it is important to know that today’s student are widly different.21st-century skills" is generally used to refer to certain core competencies such as collaboration, digital literacy, critical thinking, and problem-solving that advocates believe schools need to teach to help students thrive in today's world. In a broader sense, however, the idea of what learning in the 21st century should look like is open to interpretation—and controversy.

Twenty-first-century learning embodies an approach to teaching that marries content to skill. Without skills, students are left to memorize facts, recall details for worksheets, and relegate their educational experience to passivity. Without content, students may engage in problem-solving or team-working experiences that fall into triviality, into relevance without rigor. Instead, the 21st-century learning paradigm offers an opportunity to synergize the margins of the content vs. skills debate and bring it into a framework that dispels these dichotomies. Twenty-first-century learning means hearkening to cornerstones of the past to help us navigate our future. Embracing a 21st-century learning model requires consideration of those elements that could comprise such a shift: creating learners who take intellectual risks, fostering learning dispositions, and nurturing school communities where everyone is a learner.

This literature review synthesizes published works on 21st centurylearning skills. There has been a significant shift over the last centuryfrom manufacturing to emphasizing information and knowledgeservices. Knowledge itself is growing ever more specialized andexpanding exponentially. Information and communication technologyis transforming how we learn and the nature of how work is conductedand the meaning of social relationships. Shared decision-making,information sharing, collaboration, innovation, and speed are essentialin today’s enterprises. No longer can students look forward to middleclass success in the conduct of manual labor or use of routine skills –work that can be accomplished by machines or easily out-sourced toless expensive labor markets. Today, much success lies in being able tocommunicate, share, and use information to solve complex problems, in being able to adapt and innovate in response to new demands andchanging circumstances, in being able to command and expand thepower of technology to create new knowledge.

FOUR WAYS TO ENGAGE DIGITAL LEARNERS

The creative application of technology can help you engage digital learners in content, reinforce skills essential to life in today's world, and, most importantly, require them to actively create rather than passively consume. Tap into their passions Digital learners are idealistic and passionate about issues that affect them. Climate change, privacy rights and freedoms, and health and safety, are just a few topics that engage today’s students. Listen for the challenges and passions in your student population and see if they connect to content, ideas, or issues you want to address. Connect to their worldWith all of the pressures to "cover" curriculum, it often seems difficult to invest time in real-world projects. But if we only focus on delivering information, our students end up doing work that bears no resemblance to what they see people doing in the world beyond the classroom. Make students the expertsIn the flipped classroom, students first explore a topic at home and then return to class to ask questions, address misunderstandings, and apply knowledge in a new project. Give their voice a platform Ask your students to tell a story. Digital storytelling is a great way to get them to delve deeper in the content you are studying. For example, have students create docudramas showing historic events or scientific processes through the eyes of a particular person or object.

Why is Digital Literacy Important? It is very important to know so that we can prepare 21st century .Literacy skills have always been important. In centuries past, people communicated via letters. These letters soon turned into telegraph messages. From there we advanced to the telephone, internet and then text messaging via a phone. Today's options for communication far outweigh the one or two of generations pasts. "Children learn these skills as part of their lives, like language, which they learn without realizing they are learning it
