The majority of schools continue to emphasize teaching a set of fundamental skills that are out of step with the demands of contemporary society. Learning content alone is insufficient, even if students must gain information. Nowadays, being able to find, assess, and apply information efficiently has become more important than simply being able to recall and regurgitate information.

For today's pupils to succeed in the information era, they must be well prepared. They are joining a workforce that is more mobile and more qualified than ever before, entering a busy, competitive, uncertain world, and constructing careers that encompass a variety of occupations, positions, and skill sets—some of which haven't even been created yet.

This ebook describes in plain terms what the 21st century skills are, and how can they be practically applied in the modern classroom. There are also some suggested activities at the end with practical examples and suggested apps.
