  • Abstract
    Education shows a great impact in the life of an individual. In present time, students are expected to become 21st century learners to fulfill the demands of 21st century. Many strategies are developed and are being implemented in developed countries so that the skills acquired by students from education makes a positive impact in changing markets. But, the implementation of these methods in developing countries is a tedious task due to wide disparity in education systems. In this paper, few activities that significantly help in acquiring 21st century skills and an approach for implementation of these activities are proposed.
