Are they informed consumers and interactive, effective communicators in today’s highly visual, interactive networks? Are they producing authentic work that applies the mathematics, science, and social studies they learn in school to real-world situations?

Business leaders, politicians, and education leaders are asking schools to do more than graduate students with high academic achievement. They are calling for a 21st Century education – one that empowers students to become inquisitive, informed, and intelligent citizens, workers, and family and community members.

Dimensions21^TM provides the “What, Why, Where, and How To” for advancing 21st Century Learning in schools – as well as the metrics to track a school’s progress. D21 consists of a definitional framework, multiple data collection strategies, and information-rich reports on the readiness of your schools to engage students in this important work (including student perspectives on their engagement in learning). Metiri also provides high quality consulting services to guide districts toward innovative 21st Century leadership, learning, and teaching.
