In Teaching and Learning for the Twenty-First Century, Reimers and his co-manager, HGSE teacher Connie K. Chung, investigate how educational systems in six nations are characterizing and supporting these worldwide capabilities. Their point is to build up a mutual system for advancing the aptitudes understudies will require so as to flourish as worldwide nationals in a supportable world in the decades ahead.
"Youngsters are in a setting where they're soaked and immersed with issues from around the globe," says Chung. Between new advances, duplicating media, and layers of intercontinental association, "worldwide citizenship instruction is an 'absolute necessity have' and not a 'decent to have' — for everybody," says Chung.
Between new advances, duplicating media, and layers of intercontinental association, "worldwide citizenship training is an 'unquestionable requirement have' and not a 'decent to have' — for everybody."
Reimers and Chung utilized the National Research Council's 2012 report, Education for Life and Work: Developing Transferable Knowledge and Skills in the 21st Century, as a hopping off point for their examination of strategies and educational module that are best situated to support worldwide subjects. That report (read the exploration brief here) recognizes three wide spaces of skill: subjective, intrapersonal, and relational. "This is not simply discussing information," says Chung. Or maybe, it incorporates such qualities as intercultural education, self-control, and adaptability in social and work areas.
THE COGNITIVE COMPETENCIES
As Chung recommends, the 21st-century worldwide resident's intellectual expertise set incorporates conventional, testable nuts and bolts, for example, math and proficiency, yet stretches out past that to envelop an especially solid accentuation on the world in which we live. "Current occasions highlight a portion of the feelings of trepidation around otherness," she says. The way to educated citizenship is becoming more acquainted with different societies — and esteeming them.
Notwithstanding balancing children's learning base to incorporate a nuanced comprehension of world topography and societies, schools must show them the aptitudes to utilize this information as dynamic and drew in subjects.
That implies having the capacity to:
Convey adequately and listen effectively
Utilize prove and evaluate data
Talk no less than one dialect past one's local tongue
Think fundamentally and break down nearby and worldwide issues, difficulties, and openings
Reason consistently and translate obviously
Moved toward becoming and remain carefully proficient, including the capacity to "weigh and judge the legitimacy of the substance that is before you," Chung says.
In some ways, advanced proficiency is a linchpin of alternate skills. "Innovation gives us people the likelihood to team up in ways that are phenomenal, to think and create things nobody could deliver exclusively," Reimers says.
THE INTERPERSONAL COMPETENCIES
Sympathy is a foundation 21st-century worldwide competency. We're all comfortable with sympathy between people: somebody's harmed, and someone else profoundly comprehends the agony. Be that as it may, Reimers and Chung imagine the idea on a worldwide scale. Compassion dwells in the capacity to consider the multifaceted nature of issues, Chung says — in an interconnected perspective that perceives that "what we do impacts another person."
Tied down in resilience and regard for other individuals, relational knowledge separates into a few covering aptitudes, including:
Coordinated effort
Collaboration and participation
Trust
Authority and duty
Confident correspondence
Social impact
As Reimers says, "We have to ensure that we can get along, and that we can see our disparities as an open door, as a wellspring of quality." Both provincially and broadly, understudies require the abilities to rise above the cutoff points of discontinuity, "where individuals can just identify with the individuals who they see to resemble them."
THE INTRAPERSONAL COMPETENCIES
A specific mix of sharpened individual attributes supports the psychological and intrapersonal abilities. Reimers focuses to a moral introduction and solid work and mind propensities, including self-direction and scholarly openness, as characteristics that 21st-century instructors must support in their understudies.
"We have to ensure that we can get along, and that we can see our disparities as an open door, as a wellspring of quality."
The world is less unsurprising than it used to be: "Individuals realize that half of the occupations that will be around quite a while from now have not been concocted," Reimers says. That implies showing youngsters such that makes them adaptable and versatile. It implies empowering them to consider themselves makers and innovators who feel great stepping up and enduring — the abilities vital for beginning one's own business, for instance.
Imparting in understudies the benefit of speculation past the here and now will give them the most obvious opportunity to handle a portion of the world's most overwhelming difficulties, including environmental change. For instance, teachers in Singapore were tested to envision their nation not five, 10, or 15 years not far off, however 30 years later on, Chung says. Urging understudies to think on that sort of a period scale helps them to get a handle on the resonations of their activities and choices.
VALUES, ATTITUDES, AND MOVING TO PEDAGOGY
In Teaching and Learning for the Twenty-First Century (which has been distributed in Chinese, Portuguese, and Spanish releases too), Reimers, Chung, and worldwide partners talked with training specialists and partners in Chile (in a section by Cristián Bellei and Liliana Morawietz), China (by Yan Wang), India (by Aditya Natraj, Monal Jayaram, Jahnavi Contractor, and Payal Agrawal), Mexico (by Sergio Cárdenas), Singapore (by Oon-Seng Tan and Ee-Ling Low), and the United States (by Chung and Reimers). They investigated educational programs structures, trying to see how qualities and states of mind special to every nation and district were illuminating strategy objectives and at last molding understudies' learning openings.
Drawing on that review of 21st-century abilities and the structures for their support, Reimers, Chung, and their carefully associated worldwide system of teachers are currently coaxing out an instructional method for instructors all over the place. Reimers and Chung co-wrote (with Vidur Chopra, Julia Higdon, and E.B. O'Donnell) another new book, Empowering Global Citizens, which lays out a K–12 educational modules for worldwide citizenship training called The World Course. Its point is to position understudies and groups to flourish in the midst of globalization — to lead, to steward, and to shield this mind boggling world in the present century and past.
