    Framework for 21st Century

    According to the Partnership for 21st


    Century Skills, this concept encompasses
    a wide array of a body of knowledge and
    skills that have to be categorized.
    Moreover, this concept has been
    interconnected with applied skills, cross-
    curricular skills, cross-disciplinary skills,
    interdisciplinary skills, transferable skills,
    transversal skills, noncognitive skills and
    soft skills.
    The 21st century skills concept is grounded on the belief that students must be educated
    in a more relevant, useful, in-demand and universally applicable manner. The idea
    simply lies in the fact that students needs to be taught different skills and reflect on the
    specific demand that will be placed upon them in a complex, competitive, knowledge-
    based, information-age and technology-driven society. Therefore, 21 st Century
    education addresses the whole child or the whole person (AACTE, 2010).

    Hence, the curriculum should be designed to be interdisciplinary, integrated and project-


    based. Tony Wagner (2010), in his book “The Global Achievement Gap”, advocated the
    seven survival skills, namely: (1) critical thinking and problem-solving; (2) collaboration
    across networks and leading by influence; (3) agility and adaptability; (4) initiative and
    entrepreneurialism; (5) effective oral and written communication; (6) accessing and
    analyzing information; and (7) curiosity and imagination.

    The term “21st Century skills” refers to certain core competencies, such as collaboration,
    digital literacy, critical thinking, and problem-solving that schools need to teach the
    students for them to thrive in today’s world.

    Learning and Innovation skills

    These are the primary skills orchestrated in the 21 st century. They are attributes that
    differentiate students who are prepared for a complex life and work environment from
    those who are not. Therefore, there is a need to stress on creativity, critical thinking,
    communication and collaboration in preparing learners for the future.

    A.Critical Thinking and Problem Solving. These may include effectively analyzing
    and evaluating evidence, arguments, claims and beliefs; and solving different kinds of
    non-familiar problems in both conventional and innovative ways.
