How Digital Tools Prepare Students for the 21st Century

The United States currently ranks seventeenth in the world on tests assessing science and math knowledge and skills, teachers report teaching science two or fewer days per week, and the Bureau of Labor and Statistics projects that by the year 2016, the United States will need an additional 15,600,000 information sector workers.

Find out how digital tools like Inspiration and InspireData can help you address these concerns by teaching students to visually represent ideas, information and data in a way that improves their ability to identify or formulate problems, think critically, and draw conclusions – all key 21st century skills. Research and real-world success stories provide a framework for applying these tools to everyday classrooms and learning objectives.

Educator Feedback on "How Digital Tools Prepare Students for the 21st Century"

"Visual learning is the most effective tool for a teacher. Abstract math concepts become so much more vivid when students use Inspiration and InspireData. This paper is absolutely correct on the memory retention of students when you use visual mapping."
