Majority of primary teachers lack understanding of 21st-century skills

A study conducted by the National Academy for Primary Education (NAPE) indicates that a significant number of primary school teachers do not possess a clear understanding of 21st-century skills. These essential competencies include critical thinking, problem-solving, and digital literacy. The findings suggest that many educators are unaware of what these skills entail or how to integrate them into their teaching practices. According to NAPE, 21st-century skills are defined as the knowledge and abilities that empower individuals to think, learn, work, and live effectively within a rapidly evolving global landscape.
