21ST CENTURY SKILLS IN EDUCATION - Empower your students with the 4C's of learning (critical thinking, creativity, collaboration and communication)
In this comprehensive program, educators will gain valuable insights, knowledge, and practical strategies to effectively integrate 21st century skills into their classrooms. Participating teachers will explore the essential skills required for success in the digital age, such as critical thinking, collaboration, communication, creativity, and digital literacy.
Description
Are your students introduced to the concepts of creative thinking, effective communication, flexibility, media literacy and cooperation in academic and social life? In a nutshell, are your students ready to meet the demands of the 21st century? What do these skills entail? Why are they important? What can you, as a mentor, do to promote these skills among your students? Our 21st century skills course covers these topics and offers answers to the previous questions. In this course, teachers experience sample lessons in classrooms through active participation and learn how to equip pupils with 21st century skills. Most importantly, we do not only provide a theoretical background to these concepts, but we also develop lesson plans together for different school subjects and implement them in the light of your own classroom conditions with a broad perspective on the 4 C's of the 21st Century skills: Critical thinking, Creativity, Collaboration and Communication.
