What are 21st century skills
 Commonly referred to as "21st century skills," these fundamental abilities
include problem-solving, cooperation, digital literacy, and critical thinking,
and are considered essential for kids to learn in order to succeed in today's
society. However, there is room for debate and interpretation when it comes
to the concept of what learning should include in the twenty-first century.
 In order to study in the twenty-first century, students must be able to
produce, synthesize, and evaluate knowledge from a wide range of sources
while also comprehending and respecting many cultural traditions. Along with
the three Rs, students also exhibit the three Cs: cooperation, communication,
and creativity. They exhibit civic duty and digital literacy. Students of all ages
may study at any time, anywhere, with the help of virtual tools and open-
source software.
21st Century Skills continue…….
 Such learning needs well-prepared teachers who make use of recent
developments in cognitive science and are strategically structured in teams,
both online and offline. Many of them will become teacherpreneurs who not
only work directly with children in their local communities but also act as
learning concierges, virtual network guides, gaming specialists, community
organizers, and policy researchers.
Advantages of 21st century skills
development in the classroom.
 The majority of today's generation was raised in an age where technology was
pervasive. They will be more comfortable utilizing a medium that they have
always seen in use if the same is available in the field of education. This will
not just pique their interest in the form of tablets and laptops.
 There are no actual limitations on time or space when moving to the digital
realm. Now, a student may view the lectures at home that he or she is
required to see, then return the following day to the class to address the
issues they are having. This enables improved time management in addition
to better engagement.
 The level and type of interaction that each student is experiencing may be
used to gauge their own growth curves. Before, it was just impossible to
engage actively. That is no longer an idea, though, thanks to digital content.
Ways to prepare Students for the 21st
century.
 Let Your Students Lead The Learning. Learning takes place best in
environments where students feel empowered to learn.
 Create an Inquiry-Based Classroom Environment.
 Encourage Collaboration.
 Develop Critical Thinking Skills.
 Encourage Creativity.
Indegenious knowlwdge and the 21st
Century
 This advances the conversation on South Africa's critical need to change its
public education systems into learning communities that inspire creativity,
innovation, and social responsibility. It does this by providing reflective
insight from an Indigenous educational leadership viewpoint. The illustration
of 21st century learning and educational leadership as Indigenous knowledge
in reaction to social, environmental, economic, and technological change
offers an alternative to pedagogical conceptions that place more emphasis on
teaching than learning.
 The taxonomy resulted from a theoretical investigation of South Africa's
educational leadership and 21st century learning skills in comparison to
Indigenous IQ epistemology. With context and implications for future
educational leadership in SA, examples of 21st century learning and
educational leadership qualities are shown even in the old ways of teaching.
REFLECTION
 1. Leader- The leader was able to start the whole presentation and pave way
for more ideas.
 2. Critical Thinker- As a critical thinker, you should assess the arguments of
others critically, but you also have to build your own arguments such that
they are objective and backed up by reliable data. Thoughts are excellent,
but make sure you can back them up.
