    A1: Because we simply cannot keep preparing students the way we used to and expect them to be ready for what lays ahead... #iledchat
  • a_fenstermaker Jan 23 @ 10:07 PM EST
    A1: Learning isn't linear and in silos, the 4Cs embrace the messiness of learning that leads to innovation #ILedchat
  • vrzemaitis Jan 23 @ 10:07 PM EST
    A1: The 4 Cs are the skills that will take the students to infinity and beyond. More than standard 1.1 in 2nd grade. #iledchat
  • Laura_Jennaro Jan 23 @ 10:08 PM EST
    A1: The 4Cs are the HOW we help Ss access/ apply curriculum, without them there is little engagement #iledchat
  • VWitherell Jan 23 @ 10:08 PM EST
    A1: Without the 4 Cs, knowledge isn't demonstrated or applied, it's regurgitated. #iledchat

    A1: one reason - it prepares for life after school. Real world requires it. No blueprint to follow in my job #iledchat

    A2: At a new campus this yr. Biggest challenge is having grade level teams and vertical teams collaborate to purposefully plan #ILedchat
  • MrWawczak Jan 23 @ 10:13 PM EST
    A2: The feeling/push that we must cover a certain amount; not enough time to really dig in #iledchat
  • tsschmidty Jan 23 @ 10:13 PM EST
    A2:A hurdle is district/state/federal mandates...when schools live in fear of being judged by a test score, 4 Cs get pushed aside. #iledchat
