This document discusses innovative pedagogical approaches that can transform teaching and learning. It analyzes approaches like blended learning, computational thinking, experimental learning, and multiliteracies. Specific examples are provided, such as a program in Nigeria that engaged students in hands-on environmental projects. The document also discusses challenges some education systems face, such as an over-emphasis on exams in Maldives and increasing student suicide rates in Japan. In conclusion, it states that while innovative pedagogies can develop 21st century skills, their successful implementation requires quality teachers, smaller class sizes, support for teacher well-being, and addressing economic/social differences.

7. • Offers more affordable and accessible and viable
solutions
• Alternative for schools who does not have access to
modern technologies
• A great method of teaching and learning for schools
who does not have sufficient qualified teachers
End-Result:
• Contribute to social and emotional learning and to
student engagement

8. Trainee and peer teachers
rapid feedback to leverage a small
number of skilled teachers
Each class is separated into three
parts:
1.A peer-learning component
2. Time for each student to work
independently;
3. A class dialogue

oversee all three parts quality)

including erosion,
deforestation, and
desertification

environmental issues in

communities
Did significantly better than
their peers in a control group

knowledge
- had gained in the program
to solve immediate and
future environmental
problems

10. ENGAGING WITH CRAFTS AND CREATIVITY
• Involves, collaboration and communication.
• Learning through experiences in STEM subjects and
means acquiring skills in problem solving, critical and
creative thinking
End-Result:
• Foster conceptual skills such as observing, imaging,
and abstracting, sensual and manipulative skills,
problem-solving skills, and experience with materials
and techniques

11. Engaging 3D Experiences For Canadian Students
a course on construction carpentry
and computer-assisted design was
reframed to teach students to make
electric guitars through studio-design
learning
introduced students to 3D
computer design and computer
numeric control wood milling
technology
End-Result:
Attendance and achievement for the students
attending this course went up and all the final
projects were completed

13. MALDIVES MEDIUM-LOW INCOME COUNTRY
Teachers are trained to use innovative pedagogies,
Classroom are well equipped
pass rate of Cambridge Ordinary and Advanced level have
increased by 79%
17% of students achieving A*s in the exams
Subject wise International highest score achievers

15. • Students and teachers are under pressure
to produce good result
• Students spends half of student life
repeating, practicing and wrote learning
the previous years exam papers to get
ready for these exams.
• Less focus given on developing the skills
and preparing learners for the future

16. 99%
Upper secondary graduation rates
95% (OECD average 80%)
The world’s most admired
curriculums.

17. Teachers’ salaries: Average
annual starting salary in lower
secondary education:
USD 27, 545 (OECD average
USD 30 750)
entire curriculum is
suffused with the moral
education agenda of the
Japanese government
Japan has found a distinctive
path which is congruent with
its values and commensurate
with the economic and societal
progress it desires to achieve

18. Yet JAPAN Education System Is Faced With
• Decreasing the school enrollment rate
• A survey has shown that 27% of elementary school students and 64%
of junior high school children feel fatigue in their daily lives.
• Examination wars prevent children from growing up with sound
minds, which makes their future of Japan gloomy.
• Rejects individual differences
• Put so much pressure on students as a result the number of students
who commit suicide is increasing on an alarming rate

19. CONCLUSION
• Innovative pedagogies do not alone enforce the developments of 21st
century skills BUT
• For the successful implementation, the following requirements needs to
be met which include:
- Increase the number of teacher to student ratio, build QUALITY
teachers
- Reduce the large class numbers
- Enhance the well being of teachers
- Reduce the economic and social difference
- Provide a safe and secure teaching and learning environment
