How can we as educators assist in the creation of 21st Century Literate Citizens?
"The goal is to take the natural interests of each student and use that as a vehicle for teaching what we want students to learn. The best sign of a successful education system would be that students want to go to school, they remain excited about learning once they get there, and that in the end, they are prepared to creatively respond to the kind of open ended problems they will actually face them in the world."-E.D. Hirsch
