Appendix C
Framework for 21st Century Learning
Core Subjects and 21st Century Themes
Mastery of core subjects and 21st century themes is essential to student success. Core subjects include English, reading or
language arts, world languages, arts, mathematics, economics, science, geography, history, government and civics.
In addition, schools must promote an understanding of academic content at much higher levels by weaving 21st century
interdisciplinary themes into core subjects:
• Global Awareness
• Financial, Economic, Business and Entrepreneurial Literacy
Pag
e52
• Civic Literacy
• Health Literacy
• Environmental Literacy
Learning and Innovation Skills
Learning and innovation skills are what separate students who are prepared for increasingly complex life and work
environments in today’s world and those who are not. They include:
• Creativity and Innovation
• Critical Thinking and Problem Solving
• Communication and Collaboration
Information, Media and Technology Skills
Today, we live in a technology and media-driven environment, marked by access to an abundance of information, rapid changes
in technology tools and the ability to collaborate and make individual contributions on an unprecedented scale. Effective citizens
and workers must be able to exhibit a range of functional and critical thinking skills, such as:
• Information Literacy
• Media Literacy
• ICT (Information, Communications and Technology) Literacy
Life and Career Skills
Today’s life and work environments require far more than thinking skills and content knowledge. The ability to navigate the
complex life and work environments in the globally competitive information age requires students to pay rigorous attention to
developing adequate life and career skills, such as:
• Flexibility and Adaptability
• Initiative and Self-Direction
• Social and Cross-Cultural Skills
Pag
e53
• Productivity and Accountability
• Leadership and Responsibility
21st Century Support Systems
Developing a comprehensive framework for 21st century learning requires more than identifying specific skills, content
knowledge, expertise and literacies. An innovative support system must be created to help students master the multi-
dimensional abilities that will be required of them. The Partnership has identified five critical support systems to ensure student
mastery of 21st century skills:
• 21st Century Standards
• Assessments of 21st Century Skills
• 21st Century Curriculum and Instruction
• 21st Century Professional Development
• 21st Century Learning Environments
