The document discusses the six dimensions of 21st century learning: collaboration, knowledge construction, real-world problem solving and innovation, use of ICT for learning, self-regulation, and skilled communication. It provides details on each dimension. Knowledge construction involves students creating new knowledge rather than just consuming information. Collaboration allows people with different perspectives to explore solutions. Real-world problem solving prepares students for the future by applying skills and ideas in practice. ICT and online tools can enhance and optimize learning. Self-regulation and skilled communication are important skills for students and teachers.

3. Knowledge
construction
Knowledge construction occurs when students create new
knowledge themselves rather than reproducing or consuming
information.
When students participate in knowledge construction rather
than reproduction, they build a deeper understanding of the
content.
Learning environments that are designed for knowledge
construction promote self-regulated and self-directed learners as
well as building grit.
Knowledge construction anchors the development of
21st Century skills because students need to be able to have
background knowledge in order to perform the skills in an
authentic context.

4. Individual Constructivism
Individual
constructivism: also
called cognitive
constructivism.
emphasizes individual,
internal construction of
knowledge.

5. Social constructivism
Social constructivism:
knowledge exist in a
social context and is
initially shared with
others instead of being
represented solely in the
mind of an individual.

6. Collaboration

7. Collaboration
is a process through which people who see different aspects of
a problem can constructively explore their differences and
search for solutions that go beyond their own limited vision of
what is possible.

8. Real-world
problem
solving and
innovation
Real world problem-solving and innovation are skills that are
integral to living and working in the 21st century.
Educators can provide young people with opportunities to
engage in real world problems and to apply their solutions or
ideas in practice
Teachers for example, can familiarise learners with the use of
Microsoft word to write formal letters, Curriculum Vitae which
will help learners to write perfect CVs and formal letters when
applying for a job in future.

9. Use of ICT for
learning
Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in
education is the mode of education that use information and
communications technology to support, enhance, and optimize
the delivery of information.
Teachers can make use of computers to prepare lessons and
use ICT tools for data management such as Microsoft Access to
save space and time.
Teachers can familiarise learners with ICT for learning by using
online assessment tools to prepare for assessments.

10. LEARNING USING ICT
 Motivates learner
Learning process can be anywhere and anytime
Students use interactive whiteboard in classroom.

11. Self-
regulation
Self-regulation is the ability to understand and
manage your behavior and your reactions to
feelings and things happening around you.
It includes being able to: regulate reactions to
strong emotions like frustration, excitement,
anger and embarrassment.

12. Skilled
communication

with their teachers and their peers.

13. Self-regulation
