What is Curriculum 21?
Curriculum 21 is the outgrowth of the work of a dynamic group of educators worldwide, attempting to help colleagues transform curriculum and school designs to match the needs of 21st century learners. The impetus originated from the Curriculum Mapping work developed by Dr. Jacobs.
After Dr. Jacobs and her team examined maps emerging across the United States and overseas, it was evident that curriculum and instruction remained dated, although both students and teachers recognized the need to become current and forward-thinking in their planning.
Concrete and practical models for updating school programs are the basis for Dr. Jacobs’ book, Curriculum 21: Essential Education for a Changing World (ASCD).
Because of its impact on revising and changing education, Curriculum 21 has become a division of Curriculum Designers Inc, whose goal is to provide a full range of resources and services to all educators and schools involved in the journey of Curriculum Mapping.
