Teachers for the 21st Century

The Teachers for the 21st Century (Teach 21) program was cosponsored by the Council of Independent Colleges (CIC) and Microsoft Corporation. It was a project within Microsoft’s Partners in Learning initiative, which seeks to influence K-12 education not only in the United States but also throughout the world. Through the Teachers for the 21st Century program, college and university faculty members who prepare future teachers became more familiar with 21st century skills and technologies. Faculty members participated in workshops, webinars, and online communities of practice developed specifically for this program as part of Microsoft's Partners in Learning initiative.
