I won't say where this was (to spare blushes!) but it was fun to find
a room dedicated to the 21st century in a school in 2010!. I popped in, but
there was nobody inside...
Although nice folk who ask me to conferences often pop the 21st century title into the programme (NOT my choice though!), I personally do get a bit fed up with references to 21stC learning. If you are a nine year old it's the only place you've ever lived!
Now we are a decade into this century perhaps we can all talk about 3rd Millennium Learning? Please...

Totally agree with you on that one Stephen. I known schools who say 'We do Forest Schools on Tuesday afternoon', surely if you compartmentalize a broad philosophy you may as well not do it at all!
Third Millennium Learning sounds good, and perhaps encourages us to think more sustainably too!
And - 21st century learning implies that we only evaluate or change stuff every century.
