 Students' 21st Century Skills

•Knowledge Building: Students move beyond the

reproduction of information to construct
knowledge that is new to them.
•Problem-Solving and Innovation: Students solve
problems for which there is no previously
learned solution, make choices in their approach,
and implement their solutions in the real world.
•Skilled Communication: Students present their
ideas in ways that are clear and compelling, and
present sufficient relevant evidence on a topic or
theme. Shear et al., (2010)
LAC Session - Science Department October 26, 2018
 Students' 21st Century Skills

•Collaboration: Students work together in

groups, take on roles, and produce a joint work
product.
•Self-Regulation: Students plan and monitor their
work, and make revisions based on feedback or
self-assessment.
•Use of ICT for Learning: Students use ICT to
construct knowledge; choose when, where, and
how to use it; and evaluate the credibility and
relevance of online re- sources.

 Questions to Reflect

1. Why is it important for us teachers to be aware of

this set of skills?

2. How then can we have more learners like Hataman?

3. How are we going to develop the skills that our 21st

century learners thruly need?

4. What particular activities for professional

development can we undergo to address what is truly
necessary?
