"With the growth of the 21st-century learning movement, many educators now look to the 4C's framework for the skills that are most important for student success. As opposed to the 20th-century 3 R's framework that purported reading, (w)riting, and 'rithmetic as the three most important skills for students to know, the 4C's indicate communication, collaboration, critical thinking, and creativity as the principal components of a 21st-century learner."
