21st Century Skills

Within the last few years, a growing consensus of education ministries around the world have acknowledged that students need a new set of skills to succeed in the 21st century. The ability to think critically, problem solve, gather information, communicate, and collaborate using 21st century tools are now prerequisites for participating in today's workforce and global society. Preparing schools, teachers, and students to meet this demand requires new sets of tools, assessments, and strategies for teaching and learning.

CCT staff who have played prominent roles in this domain include Shelley Pasnik and Harouna Ba.
