    About this ebook

    With this collection of 18 easy-to-follow challenges, learn how to promote teamwork and collaboration, motivating your students to develop the skills they’ll need for the future.

    Incorporating digital age skills into curriculum can be daunting for educators, and getting started can be the hardest part. In this book, author and education leader L. Robert Furman breaks down the process into 18 challenges so that teachers can improve student outcomes based on digital age skills and future-minded progress in a single semester.

    This book includes:
    • Weekly step-by-step challenges designed to fill one semester.
    • Case studies by leaders in the field and examples of how to implement the challenges for each grade level.
    • Coverage of key topics such as digital citizenship, communication, problem-solving and integration of technology into learning.

    The Future-Ready Challenge focuses on changing the classroom, your teaching style and the related procedures to increase opportunities for your students to engage in -- and most importantly, adopt -- digital age skills.
