Since for many people, life in the 21st Century has become international, multicultural and inter-connected, new skills are needed to succeed in education. In this talk, different understandings of so-called 21st Century skills are explored. This session discusses some of the key conditions needed to develop skills for innovation and analyses relevant trends that stimulate the development of these skills within and outside formal educational settings. Key elements include: the mismatch between formal education and the challenges of an innovative society; the shift from-what-we-learn to how-we-learn; the fluctuating relationship between digital technologies and contents; the changing conceptions of space-time and the emphasis on lifelong learning; and the development of soft skills. Finally, this talk will emphasise that the augmented learning and the development of skills for innovation are critical aspects for the future of education.

6. Internet is increasingly a key source of information:
2005 to 2013: Increase in informal learning practices such as finding or checking a fact (from 78% to
90%) or looking up the definition (from 47% to 74%).
Investigating topics of personal interest 78% to 90% (but with no clear trend).

‘augmented learning’Seely Brown, Douglas Thomas, A New Culture of Learning:
The ability of each participant in a group to communicate, manage conflict, organise a team, build consensus and manage progress is crucial to its success and the measurement of these skills is at the heart of the three competencies that will form the reporting scales for the assessment. Assessing Social &Cognitive process(rather than specific domain knowledge)> Combination of actions made by the team members, communication between members, and products generated by the individual and the group.+ Social skills (cooperation, empathy, negotiation)+Cognitive skills (definition & understanding ofproblem, and knowledge building)
