Learn why The Student Experience21 is important for your students and how they will participate:

These four key themes are essential for students to thrive now—and in the future:

1. Hope: Students experience hope when they believe their future is promising. But it is more than wishful thinking. Hopeful students have clear goals, paired with the mindset and motivation to reach them. They also anticipate and plan for obstacles, and therefore plan for multiple pathways to success.
2. Engagement: Students are emotionally engaged when they have strong relationships with their teacher and peers, making them feel safe, enthusiastic, and confident in their learning.
3. Belonging: Students experience 21st century learning when teachers design opportunities for students to think deeply and bring their learning to life through questioning, exploring, and reflecting on how their learning connects to the world beyond school.
4. 21st Century Learning: Students experience 21st century learning when teachers design opportunities for students to think deeply and bring their learning to life through questioning, exploring, and reflecting on how their learning connects to the world beyond school.

 
When you invite students to share how they feel about their learning experiences—around these four key themes—you can discover gaps between student perception and teacher intention, and then you can respond with research-based strategies.
