    These skills are completely different from 20th century skills. The 21st century skills are much more fixated on technology. It is safe to say that learning skills change with the times. As technology advances, so too will the learning skills. The 21st century opens more room for creativity and own personal flair, these skills I'm sure weren't as relevant and focused on.

    It'll take time, but I'm sure we could blend in 21st century skills into the everyday curriculum that we are so used to. We don't have to just limit teaching to just "I write notes" and "you take them down into your notebook". Its not fitting the 21st century skills into the curriculum that is the problem, its the matter of replacing the old teaching methods with new ones.

21st century skills

  • The essence of the skills includes collaboration, communication, creativity and innovation and critical thinking coined the 4Cs by the Partnership for 21st Century Skills (a group of corporations who partnered with the U.S. Department of Education in 2002). As you can see, 21st-century skills mean much more than using and applying technology, as some are want to imagine.
