media, technology, which assessment results by experts are suitable for all skills. These results may come from all
components have been analyzed and synthesized by accepted academic theories and educators which cover the
21st century learning skills of learners in all areas. The development of the 21st century learning skills in
educational institutions needs to administrate according to all 3 components. At present, world is rapidly
progressing due to the trend of social change that occurred in the 21st century so the 21st century learning skills are
important for living and working in the present social and economic system. In accordance with Panich (2012)
mentioned that education in the 21st century is preparing people to face fast changes, violent, fluctuating and
unpredictable. People in this era must have advance skills to learn and adapt. Teachers who work for students must
improve themselves to gain enough learning skills as well. They, at the same time, must have skills in the role of
teacher in the 21st century, which is different from the role of teacher in the 20th or 19th century and in accordance
with the research of Sirilak (2014) which identify students’ skills in the 21st century by synthesizing relevant
concepts and research. Then expert in children and youth development of the 21st century skills found that skills of
students in the 21st century consisted of 5 components which are 1) creativity thinking skills 2) critical thinking
and problem solving 3) information skills, media and technology 4) communication skills 5) life and career skills.

level. As for the need for the development of learners’ skills in the 21st century, it was found that the overall

modified value = 0.36, followed by learning and innovation skills. A PNI modified value = 0.31, while the skills

may be due to the development of learners’ skills in the 21st century is practiced at a medium or low level, resulting
in a desirable overall condition. At a high level and life skills and career skills were at the highest need for
development. In accordance with the research of Youngtrong (2017) said that strategies for the development of
desirable characteristics of students in basic education institutions in the 21st century, the research found that the
conditions and problems of the development of desirable characteristics of students in basic education institutions
in the 21st century, the school determined vision, mission, goals, objectives, measurement, guidelines for
knowledge and virtue more than thinking and information, media and technology skills.
There is not enough
media, technology and learning resources within school for students. There is a little supervision system to manage
the learning process. Measurement and evaluation focus on knowledge more than thinking, skills and virtue. Some
teachers have less learning management skills in the 21st century.
