Editor's Notes

  • #10 Overall, the K to 12 program is a necessity given the need to: Enhance the curriculum to improve mastery of basic competencies, Ensure seamlessness of primary, secondary, and post-secondary education, Improve teaching and learning outcomes through the use of enhanced pedagogies – such as spiral progression in Science and Math – and the rationalization of the medium of instruction in our schools, especially for Kindergarten and the early primary levels, and Expand job opportunities for both graduates and school leavers alike by reducing the mismatch between acquired skills and available jobs, and provide a stronger foundation for post-secondary education and the world of work. We want to produce holistically developed graduates with 21st century skills. We want to nurture lifelong learners who are better prepared for the rigours of post-secondary education and the world of work.
  • #13 Creativity and innovation Education in the 21st Century this calls for a culture of innovation informed by data, research, and critical and creative thinking. This skill set promotes creative thinking and the ability to work creatively with others. Lack of attention to developing creativity and innovation skills is often based on a common misperception that creativity is only for artistic-types and geniuses – that creativity is something one is born with or without (Trilling & Fadel, 2009). Creativity can, Triling & Fadel argue, be nurtured by teachers and learning environments that encourage questioning, openness to new ideas, and learning from mistakes and failures. Creativity and innovation skills can be developed, like other skills, with practice and over time (Wegerif & Dawes, 2004). Though it is difficult to assess creativity, there are multiple instruments and assessments that have been designed to measure creativity in specific fields such as problem solving and design. Critical thinking and problem solving Critical thinking and problem solving skills include the ability of individuals to a) reason effectively, b) ask pointed questions and solve problems, c) analyze and evaluate alternative points of view, and d) reflect critically on decisions and processes. Communication and collaboration The communication and collaboration skill sets refer to the ability of individuals to communicate clearly, using oral, written, and non-verbal languages, and collaborate effectively and responsibly with diverse populations. Communicate Clearly • Articulate thoughts and ideas effectively using oral, written and nonverbal communication skills in a variety of forms and contexts. • Listen effectively to decipher meaning, including knowledge, values, attitudes and intentions • Use communication for a variety of purposes [e.g., to inform, instruct, motivate and persuade] • Utilize multiple media and technologies, and know how to judge their effectiveness a priori as well as assess their impact • Communicate effectively in diverse environments [including multi-lingual] Collaborate with Others • Demonstrate the ability to work effectively and respectfully with diverse teams • Exercise flexibility and willingness to be helpful in making necessary compromises to accomplish a common goal • Assume shared responsibility for collaborative work, and value individual contributions made by each team member (Trilling & Fadel, 2009)
  • #14 Media literacy The literature on 21st century media skills argues that it is essential for individuals to be able access, understand, and analyze media and media messages. This skill set includes the ability to understand media bias and the ways in which media influences beliefs and behaviors. A media literate individual will be able to understand ethical issues surrounding the production of and use of various media forms and critique the inclusion or exclusion of opinions or factual information in media reports. 21st century media skills also refer to the ability of individuals to effectively create and deliver media products. Learners need skills in critically evaluating and creatively producing representations in a variety of media. Information literacy Information literacy forms the basis for lifelong learning. It is common to all disciplines, to all learning environments, and to all levels of education. It enables learners to master content and extend their investigations, become more self-directed, and assume greater control over their own learning. Information literacy is “the ability to recognize when information is needed and have the ability to locate, evaluate, and use effectively the needed information” (LearnHigher, 2006). Information literacy skills include: accessing information efficiently, evaluating information critically, and using information accurately and creatively. These literacies form the basis for lifelong learning (Andretta, 2005). They are common to all disciplines and to all learning environments. Information literate individuals are able to: Determine the extent of information needed. Access the needed information effectively and efficiently. Evaluate information and its sources critically. Incorporate selected information into one’s knowledge base. Use information effectively to accomplish a specific purpose. Understand the economic, legal, and social issues surrounding the use of information, and access and use information ethically and legally. Technological literacy In supporting digital and learning literacies, support staff and faculty should work to: design flexible learning opportunities, situate those learning opportunities, where possible and appropriate, in authentic contexts, continually review how technologies are integrated into the curriculum, support students to use their own technologies and to develop effective strategies for learning with technology, use assessment and feedback to encourage innovation in learners’ approaches to study, reward exploration as a process, empowering students to navigate increasingly complex learning landscapes, and support student self-assessment and review.
  • #15 The 21st century life and career skills focus on the ability of individuals to work effectively with diverse teams, be open-minded to varying ideas and values, set and meet goals, manage projects effectively, being accountable for results, demonstrate ethical practices, and be responsible to both one’s self and the larger community. Flexibility And Adaptability Adapt to Change • Adapt to varied roles, jobs responsibilities, schedules and contexts • Work effectively in a climate of ambiguity and changing priorities Be Flexible • Incorporate feedback effectively • Deal positively with praise, setbacks and criticism • Understand, negotiate and balance diverse views and beliefs to reach workable solutions, particularly in multi-cultural environments Initiative And Self-direction Manage Goals And Time • Set Goals With Tangible And Intangible Success Criteria • Balance Tactical (Short-term) And Strategic (Long-term) Goals • Utilize Time And Manage Workload Efficiently Work Independently • Monitor, Define, Prioritize And Complete Tasks Without Direct Oversight Be Self-directed Learners • Go Beyond Basic Mastery Of Skills And/Or Curriculum To Explore And Expand One’s Own Learning And Opportunities To Gain Expertise • Demonstrate Initiative To Advance Skill Levels Towards A Professional Level • Demonstrate Commitment To Learning As A Lifelong Process • Reflect Critically On Past Experiences In Order To Inform Future Progress Leadership and responsibility Leadership and responsibility skills include the ability of individuals to work with the interest of the larger community in mind, to inspire others by example, and to capitalize on the strengths of others to achieve a common goal. Productivity and accountability Skills that fall into the “productivity and accountability” category include: setting and meeting goals, prioritizing needs, managing time, working ethically, and collaborating and cooperating with colleagues and clients. Students should be able to manage projects; set and meet goals; prioritize, plan, and manage work; produce results; multitask; work positively and ethically; be accountable for results; and collaborate and cooperate effectively with teams. Social and cross-cultural skills 21st century social and cross-cultural skills reference the ability to work well with colleagues, present oneself professionally, and respect and embrace social and cultural differences. This ability is an essential 21st century life skill. Understanding and embracing cultural and social differences and using those differences to develop new ideas and new solutions to problems are increasingly important in social spheres as well as in the workplace. Students should be able to interact effectively with others, conduct themselves in a respectful and professional manner, work effectively in diverse teams, respond open-mindedly to different ideas and values, and be able to work effectively with people from a range of social and cultural backgrounds.
