Curriculum
Twenty-First Century Challenges
Dear Educators,
With the 21st Century Challenges lessons from our highly acclaimed free CyberSmart! Student Curriculum, our goal is to enable students to think critically about the Internet as a communication and collaboration tool and consider how their futures will be affected by rapidly changing digital technologies. In our carefully developed lessons for Grades K–8, students
- learn how the Internet relates to communication inventions of the past
- conceptualize the geography of cyberspace and explain how it relates to the places they know
- learn about networks and the network of networks—the Internet
- predict how new communication technologies will affect people in the future
Components and features
- Nonsequential standards-based lessons and student activity sheets easily integrate into your regular curriculum.
- Alignment to ISTE National Educational Technology Standards for Students © 2007 is provided.
- Home connection informs parents/guardians and enlists their support by providing a framework for family dialogue.
