Out-of-school Settings Create Climate for New Skills

The big picture of this article is explaining the importance of learning inside the classroom and outside the classroom. It starts of by talking about the improvements of digital learning and the 21st century skills. It explains how students need a good balance between how and where they learn. This article also talks about the importance of connective learning. Connective learning tries to find how students learn best and in what environment. Out of school settings are just as important for students to learn as in class assignments. Creative programs are also a great way to grab students attention and get them interested in learning. It helps to get children more engaged in learning new ways rather than the original learning techniques. The article explains how teachers are learning games and using GPS to help them learn and be more engaged. I think that all these are great ways for students to get more involved in class and with learning.
