21st Century Skills: Personal Development Skills (Suitable for VCAL Literacy)
This unit focuses on teaching students 21st century skills to be successful in adulthood.
This is a unit plan with 10 weeks of lessons, with 3 lessons per week.
It is intended to be taught as a warm up session at the commencement of your lesson. I am teaching this with my English class, but it could work with other subject areas that focus on applied learning, critical thinking or life skills.
• The aim of this unit is to support students’ personal development skills for success in the 21st century.
• The skills covered in this unit can be applied to personal and professional life situations.
• The lessons and activities are short 5-15min activities conducted at the commencement of each lesson involving individual and collaborative tasks.
• The unit covers skills involved with: communication, collaboration, problem-solving, initiative, leadership, flexibility, self-management, life-long learning, planning and organisation, and technological and digital literacy.
The lessons can be tweaked to suit your own specific cohort and their needs and abilities.
**The resource is 93 slides long and in PowerPoint (PPT) format. **
I sincerely hope that your students gain a lot of life skills from this unit and it provides them with the skills needed to be successful in the 21st century.
