Welcome
Welcome to the future of the 21st Century. You will exploring new literacies across the curriculum and what they might look like in the context of education. Much of the work that you do will be collaborative - as tasks in the 21st Century tend to be - and many will be new to you and require a different set of skills than we have traditionally taught in schools. One thing you will need to know and be able to do as a future educator is understand how people and systems change and have the flexibility to change. What remains constant through this change is your values as an educator - although perhaps these will change for you with new knowledge and skills. So part of what you need to do is sort out what you do value as an educator. As well, you will need to be open to the new and to taking risks and perhaps making mistakes. ENJOY the journey.
