To give you a bit of backgound- The Four C's are being called the "super skills" for the 21st Century. These skills have been 10 years in the making and were developed in partnership by the National Education Association (NEA) and several national organizations. The skills were narrowed down to four after interviewing leaders in a variety of areas. The 4 C's include: Critical Thinking Collaboration Creativity Communication The goal is to make the development and refinement of these skills part of the "classroom practice." Which in and of itself seems to like a great idea, but how to do it is the challenge. Now, as a teacher I believe I need to be able to show my students what each skill "looks and sounds like" in order for them to make any progress. Unfortunately, I couldn't find anything written in kid terms. So... I read what I could find about each skill and attempted to synthesize what each skill would look like in an elementary school student. Just click on the posters to download. Hope you find them helpful:)

Niche-specific content is usually not readily available through regular generic search engines. One example is the academic and scholarly content. While running a search query about an academic topic through a generic search engine such as Google would probably render fairly decent results, it, however, usually takes digging into so much fluff before finally landing on relevant results. This is where having access to topic-specific search engines comes in handy. Such search engines do not only provide specific content tailored to the topic under study but their content is more likely to be reliable and authoritative. To this end, we have compiled this list of excellent academic search engines that teachers, student researchers and academics can use to quickly locate and access scholarly works and publications. We have only included what we believe are the most relevant and popular titles out there. If you have other suggestions to add to the list please share with us on our Facebook page. Enjoy
