** Math: ** This goes for all content areas, but I think the number one 21st century skill for these students to be learning is that they can extend out to the global community to communicate through the internet. How to use the internet to their advantage of posting awareness through the graphs and discussions. By connecting with students around the world, they are able to learn to appreciate, understand, as well as critically critique what others are saying based on their research.

The 21st century skills that would be the internet, blogs, podcasts, medical online journals, virtual laboratories. Students will be asked to do various research online to find out worksite regulations, drug ingredients and dosages. Then observe pharmaceutical/medical virtual laboratories to become familiar with techniques performed by professionals.
 * Science: **

**Social Studies** : Students will use the internet to view podcasts, blogs, wikis, and postings on youtube. They will also research information online about existing projects and coalitions advocating against harsh work environments children have endured - this includes investigating documented stories of child labor abuse, muckrackers, and protests..

** English: ** The 21st century skills that will be used include podcasts, wikis, youtube postings, and blogging. Students will reach out to the global community through the wikis and podcasts in order to gather information, raise interest in their cause, and make more information available through their newscast and podcast. The group will put their videos on the wiki and internet to further promote the ending of detrimental labor laws or lack of labor laws. Students will also use power point presenations to demonstrate their understanding of literary works and how they correlate with working class struggles.
