1. Integrating 21st Century Skills into the Math Curriculum November 11, 2009 ESU#3 Facilitated by: Pam Krambeck Debbie Schraeder

2. Descriptor: Focusing on the content area of math, participants will connect with the K-12 scope and sequence literacy map for mathematics from the Partnership for 21st Century Skills with the newly adopted math standards. Ideas and activities for integrating 21st Century Skills into the math curriculum will be shared. Activities will include an overview of the 21st Century Skills, connecting 21st Century literacy maps to the math standards, and activities that utilize on-line math and collaboration tools. Participants will work through four math activities that address the 21st Century Skills of: * Information and Media Literacy * Communication * Critical Thinking and Systems Thinking * Problem Identification, Formulation & Solution * Creativity and Intellectual Curiosity * Collaboration
