Abstract

The paper aims at the educational priorities and teaching practices implemented in the Greek school that support the development of 21 st century skills. The approach to this central issue is attempted in the context of a global perspective. In specific, we focus on curricula, subject areas, the school's mission and the learning environments. In our analysis we draw on the KSAVE model (Binkley et.al., 2012) and argue that any educational endeavor to cultivate skills at the school level should be an outgrowth of organic interconnection and alignment of the above factors rather than a decontextualized practice.
