Making a persuasive argument for moving beyond the long-established idea of operating schools with traditional classroom instruction to a personalized learning environment for individual students, the authors detail six crucial elements of school management (community, instruction, time, technology, school facilities, and funding) and how to address them concurrently to improve secondary school learning environments.Transform secondary schools systemwide, from restructuring the physical learning environment to supporting personalized learning:Learn the six elements of schooling, and understand how changing any one element influences the others.Explore nine critical skills students need for success in the modern world.Review the structure and methodology behind an advisory-based concept for school management.Consider scenarios of what learning will look like in the near future as powerful new technological tools become available.Study seven visionary designs for how to renovate existing secondary school facilities to support technologically infused, personalized learning environments.Contents:IntroductionPart 1: Understanding 21st Century LearningChapter 1: The Classroom Has Run Its CourseChapter 2: Key Principles for Modern SchoolingChapter 3: Nine Essential Skills for the Modern WorldChapter 4: How Technology Will Change EducationPart 2: Designing 21st Century SchoolsChapter 5: Schooling for the FutureChapter 6: How to Make It HappenChapter 7: Concepts for New Advisory-Based SchoolsPart 3: Reimagining Seven Schools for the 21st CenturyChapter 8: Additional Considerations for Transitioning to an Advisory FormatChapter 9: The Capital SchoolChapter 10: The Green SchoolChapter 11: The Connected SchoolChapter 12: The Open SchoolChapter 13: The District School Chapter 14: The Tech SchoolChapter 15: The Academy SchoolEpilogue
