-The days of lecturing
teachers has passed-though
not entirely. While student-
centered learning is strongly
encouraged in the 21st
century, this does not mean
that the teacher can never

to acquire new information as
problems arise.

4. Education should be collaborative
Students must learn how to collaborate with others.
Society today has people collaborating across the
globe. How can students be expected to work with
people from other cultures, with different values
from their own, if they are not able to work with the
people they see each day in their classroom?
Students should be encouraged to work together to
discover information, piece it together and construct
meaning. Collaboration should also be dynamic.
Students should learn how to recognize the different
strengths and talents each person can bring to a
project and change roles depending on those
attributes.
Education should be
collaborative

5. Learning should have context
-Student –centered does not mean that the teacher gives up all control of
the classroom.While students are encouraged to learn in different
ways,the teacher still provides guidance as to the skills that need to be
acquired.The teacher can make a point of 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.
The Role of Technology in 21st Century Learning:
1. Technology allows 24/7 access to information.
2. Constant social interaction,and
3.Easily created and shared digital content.

6. Use technology Comprehensively to
develop proficiency in 21st century
skills.
-knowledge of core content is
necessarily, but no longer
sufficient, for success in a
competitive world.
- Even if all students mastered
core academic subjects, they still
would be woefully
underprepared to succeed in
postsecondary institutions and
workplaces, which increasingly
value people who can use their
knowledge to communicate,
collaborate, analyze, create,
innovate and solve problems.

7. Use technology comprehensively to
support innovative teaching and
learning
- to keep pace with a changing
world, school need to offer
more rigorous, relevant and
engaging opportunities for
students to learn-and to apply
their knowledge and skills in
meaningful ways.

Evaluation of the teaching-learning process is
also made better because through feedback,
things are improved thoroughly and there
better control over the process of education.
