Our teaching methods have not changed much; we still educate students the same way they were taught hundreds of years ago. The proliferation of powerful personal computers and the Internet changed everything: digital repositories were built and tens of thousands of massively parallel computers provided rapid access to extensive knowledge bases. Information has become as common as dirt. This demands a new model of education that caters to 21st-century skills: teamwork, brainstorming, co-creativity, critical thinking, and social intelligence. This book outlines the fundamental principles of a learning methodology that my students followed in the past decade or so.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Independently Published","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45496146034839,"sku":"9781090496720","price":1353.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781090496720.webp?v=1767921487","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/learning-in-the-21st-century-principles-models-environments-9781090496720","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
