However, there is no clear, unifying definition of the term itself (Paul, 2004), and the definition of critical thinking is debated in many different fields without support from empirical data (Kuhn, 1999).

Using a mixed-methods approach, data was collected from students, parents and teachers involved in one iteration of the 10-week program. Findings reveal aspects which could increase the potential of this program - rel

Abstract:
The problem of a prepared workforce is perennial. Part of the challenge is one of supply and demand, as education systems attempt to produce graduates with the technical competencies required for the current jobs available. In the new service- and knowledge-based economy, however, soft skills are cited as a greater need by today’s employers. Increasingly sought across all industry sectors, these skills allow employees to work independently and interdependently, respond rapidly to customer needs, and adjust to changing market conditions. As a result, institutions of higher education are being c

Abstract:
School districts continue to integrate emerging technologies and expectations for 21st century teaching and learning. This movement began with release of Goals 2000 (1994) and has continued through National Education Technology Plan (2010) that noted the “challenge for our education system is to leverage technology to create relevant learning experiences that mirror students’ daily lives and the reality of their futures.” In order to meet that challenge, schools must enlist teachers who are prepared to teach 21st century skills in the technology-rich classroom.

Abstract:
The Malaysian Eleventh Plan (2016-2020) has digital literacy as one of the key drivers to support the pillar of “leveraging Information and Communication Technology (ICT) to scale up quality learning” (Ministry of Education, 2013, p. 20). This policy is part of a broader plan aimed to prepare students for the 21st century workforce. To achieve this goal, in 2016, the Digital Competency Standard (DCS) was developed to measure and provide a national framework for the reporting of student performance in digital literacy, based on three main domains: Technology, Digital citizenship and Cognitive.

Abstract:
Many high school students who want to attend college never actually enroll. Multiple factors like barriers (e.g., financial, discrimination) and poor academic achievement prevent some high school students from matriculating to college. Researchers must form a nuanced understanding of multidimensional factors that predict college enrollment. The purpose of this dissertation is to investigate the extent to which psychosocial academic behavioral skills (PABS) predict college enrollment in two and four year colleges. A cross-sectional, survey-based methodology was used to address the research ques
