21th Century Skills

My parents and I had a conversation about the 21st century skills and we found out that there were 8 skills that were required to succeed in life

Health

-Health is imprtant because when you are healthy you can run, walk, or do sports and you will not get really tired.
-Health is also important because when you are healthy you can concentrate and focus on your work rather than taking pills, coughing, or have heart diseases etc...

- To give the family an opportunity to be proud of you by doing good things.
Work

Collaboration

Community

Language

-Know about the history of different people in order to know their culture, from where they come from, in order to interact with them in proffessional domains and be able to have discussions, share ideas.
- Learning about people and their history allows you to encircle more a person and convince him easily or your interlocutor.

Creativity and Innovation

- To be creative is important because its makes your work proffessional and makes people want to read rather than giving too much information.
- To innovate by doing more than what is expected for you to do.

- To try many times to solve a problem, to put all of your efforts not to try and abandone in these years if someone is able to accomplish something you should also be able to do it.

My Opinion

The 21st century did not follow the normal evolution like other centuries. This evolution was both advantageous and disadvantageous. In a couple of years, most of the population use internet, have a cell phone, can have the information at the same moment when it happens, by watching tv, reading newspaper, or surfing on internet. We can also notice that the planet is more damaged because people do not respect it, and we also see each day fighting and wars between countries and people. In order to follow a good evolution from the 21st century to 22nd century and to let a good world for our children to grow and have a good education, we have to respect each other, learn languages, and use technology because in the future, all work will be done by using technology such as internet, or by cell phone. Technology is important because we can communicate around the world, know more things and inform all of our surroundings. However, people do not have to use technology in a bad way by wasting their time chatting and forgeting their work or watching unappropriate videos.
