HOW TO SUCCEED IN THIS CENTURY
In a world which is constantly changing and where learning never stops students must master at some particular content knowledge, skills, expertises and literacies. We can analyze these 21st century student outcomes in four domains:
- Key subjects such as English, science, mathematics, history must be related to 21st century themes. Which are financial, economic, business, entrepreneurial, civic, health, environmental literacy and global awareness.
- Learning and innovation skills must be developed in order to be prepared for life and complex work environments. These skills include creativity and innovation, critical thinking and problem solving, communication and collaboration.
- Information literacy, media literacy and ICT (Information and Communications Technology) literacy must be improved to become effective citizens.
- Life and career skills must be upgraded. These essential skills include flexibility and adaptability, initiative and self-direction, social and cross-cultural skills, productivity and accountability, leadership and responsibility.
With the support of standards and assessments, curriculum and instruction, professional development and learning environments you can ensure success both in life and in work.
