Organization of the Third Millennium School Class Sessions: Teacher's role: Role of Technology:
 * Class sessions at the Ed-2M school can be organized by content or cross content areas, but do not necessarily need to be organined by grade level. Students have the opportunity to work on their own learning pace and academic level. Differentiated curriculum will be provided to meet the individual needs of all students. This will be achieved by giving enrolled students pre-assessments. Students will lthen be organized into groups based on academic needs. The theories of Wiggins and McTighe (Understanding by Design), Carol Ann Tomlinson, and Robert Marzano can be a starting point in developing proper Project/Problem Based Learning curriculum.
 * The teacher's role will be more "guide on the side", rather than "sage on the stage". This is necessary in the implementation of curriculum, especially technology based curriculum. Technology has many facets for a study to explore with endless opportunities, it is only necessary to allow students to explore their own learning.
 * Technology will help foster, enhance, and support necessary curriculum needed to produce 21st century life long learners. Learners who will be productive members of any every changing technology-based society. Current kindergarten students are being taught to be prepared for jobs that haven't even been created.

Most Important Changes Needed in Schools: <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 170%; overflow: hidden;">Current Changes in Schools:
 * <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 170%; overflow: hidden;">Students and families will have the opportunity to make their own schedules based around vacations, family functions, activities, sports, dance, etc. Students will no longer need to struggle with having "set school time". Students will have the opportunity to also make their own hours, given certain parameters.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 170%; overflow: hidden;">Schools are making necessary steps in preparing schools for the 21st century by providing inservices for technology hardware and software available in schools. Most inservice time is dealt with online gradbook and online assessments(aka scantron), as well as Smartboard learning.

 * <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 170%; overflow: hidden;">Designing higher level, differentiated, constructivist, student -centered, and problem -based curriculum that centers around Common Core curriculum.
 * <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 170%; overflow: hidden;">Problem solvers who can manipulate information for purposes of information-processing across and within all content areas. Students will need to make connections within and across curriculums, because curriculum will not be taught in isolation. Students will have opportunties to go far deeper and wider in their learning giving techonology with an emphasis on Common Core curriculum than ever before.
