Projects are designed to tackle complex problems, requiring critical thinking. New Tech’s strategy is simple: To learn collaboration, work in teams. To learn critical thinking, take on complex problems. To learn oral communication, present. To learn written communication, write. To learn technology, use technology. To develop citizenship, take on civic and global issues. To learn about careers, do internships. To learn content, research and do all of the above. 10 Assessing 21st Century Skills: The New Tech High Model 19 1083 _Macros Each unit begins when students are presented with a complex, standards-based problem Students form a team, develop a work contract and build a work plan 11 Assessing 21st Century Skills: The New Tech High Model 19 1083 _Macros Students get to work!
