Above and Beyond – An Ode to the 4 C’s

I have a friend who always seems to be at the edge of what is cool and awesome.  She shared this video on her reading blog on the last day of school before the spring break which is why I missed it and didn’t see it until now. It is the work of one of my favorite author/illustrators, Peter H. Reynolds, in collaboration with the Partnership for 21st Century Skills.  It is one of those videos we should have playing all the time in our schools and classrooms and highlights the importance of collaboration, communication, critical thinking and creativity – the 4 C’s of a 21st Century education.

Here is the poster mentioned at the end of the film.  Download it here.
