Windows 21st Century Learning Design App

Wow this is so cool!!

How do you know if you are doing the right thing?

Students around the world need advanced skills to succeed in the globalized, 

knowledge based world of today. 21st Century Learning Design, or 

21CLD, professional development helps teachers design lessons and 

learning activities to build students’ 21st century skills. 

The program is based on rubrics developed and tested in one of the largest ever 

international studies of 21st Century Skills - Innovative Teaching and 

Learning (ITL) Research project (http://www.itlresearch.com/).  

The 21CLD materials are presented in an easy to use, highly interactive way in this app. 

Using this app will help educators identify and understand the opportunities that

 learning activities give students to build 21st century skills. 

A learning activity is any task that students do as part of their school related work. 

It can be an exercise that students complete in one class period or an extended

 project that takes place both in and outside of school. 

The 21CLD rubrics incorporate a research-based methodology for c

oding learning activities to ensure you are embedding 21st century 

skills in your teaching practices. 

The 21CLD Rubric for Student Work provides a framework to assess students’ 

development of 21st century skills.
