 Creating opportunities in the classroom for students to build 21st-century skills should be a priority for today's educators. ALL of them.
How do you infuse 21st-century skills seamlessly into the curriculum or learning day? I like to promote 21st-century skill-building with inquiry-based learning strategies.

 What are 21st-century skills in education and why are they so darn important to teach to our kids and teens? In short, these skills are essential for modern day life and the workplace. Therefore, teaching 21st- century skills, in my experience, is as important, if not more (unpopular opinion) than teaching content.
But why? Let me paint you a little picture...  Do your students often look for the easy way out, asking you for answers instead of searching for them? That mindset contradicts the essence of classroom inquiry-based learning.
