curriculum that will help students connect
with the world and understand the issues
that our world faces.

3. In order to educate in the 21st century,
teachers and administrators need to
cultivate and maintain the student's
interest in the material by showing how
this knowledge applies in the real world.

become lifelong learners. Next they
should be flexible with how they teach
and give learners the resources to
continue learning outside of school.
4. Instruction must be student-
centered
Also called as Learner-centered
Helps develop autonomy and independence among the
learner
It is based on constructivist learning theory

he/she too knows something
Helps students learn how to learn on their own
More interactive classroom
Learning is discovery, not the memorization of facts
5. Education should be collaborative
Students should work together to discover
information, piece it together and construct
meaning
Collaboration should also be dynamic
Teach the students to respect each other
differences
Schools should also collaborate to other
educational institution to share information
and learn about different practices and
methods that have been developed
6. Learning should have context
Teacher can make a point in helping students to understand
how the skills they are building can be applied in their lives.
Students will be much more motivated to learn something that
they can see the value in.
Technology is considered a tool for learning which plays a very
vital role in 21st century education. The following are the roles
