Question 3

3) How does current education practice apply both to 21st Century Learning Skills and Core Knowledge?

 Current education practice, if done correctly incorporates both 21st century learning skills along with Core Knowledge. The core standards that are prescribed in all states are a prime example of Core knowledge being applied in the classroom. Most states also have technology standards from which teachers are directed to work from.  However, from my experience the technology standard definitely take a bake seat to the Core Knowledge. However, Universities are requiring students attempting to acquire a teaching credential to pass a technology class. For example, our fine state of California has required that all perspective teachers take a class on technology in the classroom.
