Washington, DC – Nov. 7, 2007 – Americans increasingly
recognize that the U.S. education system can and should do more to
prepare our young people to succeed in the rapidly evolving 21st
century. Skills such as global literacy, problem solving, innovation
and creativity have become critical in today’s increasingly
interconnected workforce and society. To help education leaders and
policymakers implement 21st century teaching and learning, the
Partnership for 21st Century Skills launched Route 21, an online,
one-stop shop for 21st century skills-related information, resources
and tools.
Route 21 showcases how 21st century skills can be supported through
standards, assessments, professional development, curriculum and
instruction and learning environments. The site represents the first
comprehensive, go-to online resource for high-quality content, best
practices, relevant reports, articles and research to assist
practitioners in implementing 21st century teaching practices and
learning outcomes.
