TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY SKILLS: A NEEDS ASSESSMENT OF SCHOOL-BASED AGRICULTURAL
EDUCATION TEACHERS I Weeks (2019)
Abstract
Preparing students to be career-and-work ready is a concern of educators and schools
nationwide. Twenty-first century skills prepare students to enter the workforce or
higher education with the ability to think critically and creatively, collaborate with
others, take the initiative when approached with a task, and use technology to its fullest
potential. If students are not learning the skills needed for success, it is because
educators and schools are not teaching them. When students possess these skills, they
are prepared to work in teams, think critically and creatively about a problem, display
leadership and social skills, and communicate effectively with others. This research
sought to identify school-based agriculture education teachers’ perceived knowledge,
importance, and ability to teach these 21st century skills in the classroom. Results
showed that agriculture teachers nationwide find 21st century skills to be important, but
they are less knowledgeable and able to teach them. The research concluded that
professional development is needed to increase teachers’ knowledge of and ability to
teach 21st century skills. Professional development will allow school-based agricultural
education teachers to gain specific and applicable strategies for implementation. With
the application of 21st century skills in the school-based agricultural education
classroom, students will become better prepared to enter the workforce or higher
education upon graduating high school.

Why do you think professional development on teaching 21st Century skills is needed by
teachers in the field?

Professional Development (PD) on teaching 21st century skills is required by teachers within
the field because it's relevant to the expansion and development of the contemporary
educator. It's a career-long process of developing teaching quality that ultimately results
in improved student academic performance. It gives them the desired tools and skills to
remain updated with the requirements of scholars and enables to plan prior to time for
changing trends in Education. It’s crucial so as to extend competent and practical educators
and increase understanding of non-public teaching and leadership practices. Professional
development allows teachers to stay up to this point on curriculum standards and also
the latest teaching strategies. It’s also about acquiring new skills and becoming an
improved teacher. They’ll gain confidence by learning new methods and data about their
field. A successful professional development within the 21st century relies on teachers learning
from one another to problem solve collaboratively, using technology devices to create their
content, receiving coaching and mentoring services from model teachers, and being deeply
involved in reflection and action.
