4Cs: communication, collaboration, critical thinking, and creativity.
It didn't occur me to me that the arts enhance so many skills besides the subject area being worked with (music, visual arts, dance, etc.) In some way I knew because I know math is incorporated into a lot of music skills. I just didn't think about how the 4 c's can be incorporated into anything.
The Student Outcomes include (1) the Core Subjects and 21st Century Themes; (2) Learning and Innovation Skills (also known as the 4Cs - communication, collaboration, critical thinking, and creativity); (3) Information, Media, and Technology Skills and (4) Life and Career Skills.
It is interesting that these are the 21st century skills. It is interesting to note that these skills can apply to nearly any workplace environment in this day and age. Putting these skills together would help students better prepare for the real world. In some ways I think school helps students prepare these skills. Students learn their core subjects, of course, but they also learn how to collaborate, be creative and use media and technology then apply all these skills to life.
