In the 21st century, education has evolved to emphasize a set of skills collectively known as 21st century skills, which encompass foundational literacies, competencies, and character qualities essential for success in today's rapidly changing world. Foundational literacies include traditional skills like literacy, numeracy, and scientific literacy, but also encompass digital literacy and information literacy, which are critical for navigating and evaluating vast amounts of information available online. Competencies such as critical thinking, creativity, communication, collaboration, and problem-solving are essential for adapting to complex challenges and environments. Character qualities like adaptability, resilience, empathy, cultural competence, and ethical decision-making are increasingly valued, fostering responsible citizenship and global awareness. Together, these 21st century skills empower students to become lifelong learners, effective communicators, and productive contributors in an interconnected, technologically-driven society. Integrating these skills into education prepares students to thrive in diverse professional, social, and personal contexts, equipping them with the tools needed to succeed in the modern world.
