IF YOU ARE FLUENT IN SOMETHING….“you have attained such a comfort level with it that its use is unconscious or automatic” (Jukes, McCain, & Crockett, 2001).
The six basic categories of 21st Century Skills focus on skill fluency rather than just basic understanding.

Example of Solution Fluency
Provide students with an unknown substance to investigate in lab.
Students design an experiment to test the unknown and explore its melting point in order to properly identify the unknown.
Perform the experiment and compare data with defined melting points of known substances found on iPod app.
