Social Workers weighing in on 21 Century Skills and the impact of the Iowa Core Curriculum.
(SocialWorkers)

We would like to hear your ideas generated from Tony Wagner and his book The Global Achievement Gap.We also want to have some discussion about how this correlates to the Iowa Core Curriculum and even more specifically to students with IEPs.How are we, as social workers, poised to impact these important issues and changes in our “own backyard”?As social workers our focus is on resiliency and developing the capacity in those we impact at schools: our students, and in our relationships with teachers and the “system”.Please join our department blog to provide insight into how you are incorporating these concepts into your practice.We can learn from one another and hopefully go a further distance together.Loretta and Mollie
