CHAPTER 1: 21ST CENTURY EDUCATION

21st Century Schools

- The focus is project-based curriculum for life that would engage students in addressing
real-world problems and humanity concerns and issues

- instead of textbook-driven, teacher-centered, paper-and-pencil schooling into a better


understanding of the concept of knowledge and a new definition of the educated person

- will require knowledge generation, not just information delivery, and schools will need to
create a “culture of inquiry".

Changes have implications for teachers:


(1) Teachers must discover student interest by helping them see what and how they are
learning to prepare them for life in the real world.
(2) They must instill curiosity, which is fundamental to lifelong learning.
(3) They must be flexible in how they teach.
(4) They must excite learners to become more resourceful so that they will continue to learn
outside formal school.

The 21st Century Curriculum


- interdisciplinary, project-based, and research-driven
- connected to local, national, and global communities
- integrates higher order thinking skills, multiple intelligences, technology and multimedia,
multiple literacies, and authentic assessments, including service-learning
- focus is NOT textbook-driven or fragmented instruction, but more thematic, project-
based and integrated with skills and competencies

Technology in the 21st Century Pedagogy


“Technologies are not ends in themselves, but these are tools students use to create
knowledge for personal and social change.”

- 21st Century learning recognizes full access to technology


- Various laboratories and learning centers are set up in such a way that they allow a space
needed for students’ simulation and manipulative works

Understanding 21st Century Learners


- Students are referred to as "digital natives", while educators as "digital immigrants"
(Prensky, 2001)
- Students' entire lives have been immersed in the 21st Century media culture
- Preschoolers easily navigate electronic multimedia resources on games, in which they
learn colors, numbers, letters, spelling, and more complex tasks, such as mixing basic
colors to create new colors, problem-solving activities, and reading.

21st Century Skills Outcome and the Demands in the Job Market
The Partnership for 21st Century Skills has three types

(1) Learning Skills


(2) Literacy Skills
(3) Life Skills

According to Partnership for 21st Century Skills (P21), various industries look for employees who
can think critically, solve problems creatively, innovate, collaborate, and communicate.
Therefore, for a perfect match between academe and industry demands, schools need to
embed time-tested industry-demanded work skills in the curriculum.

21st Century Learning Implications


- Teachers should practice teaching cross-disciplinary skills in related courses
- Schools and teachers should use variety of applied skills, multiple technologies, and new
ways of analyzing and processing information
- Students need to be taught how to process, analyze and use the information
- Schools need to adapt and develop new ways of teaching and learning that reflect a
changing world.
