Content Input

UNESCO’s Four Pillars of Teaching

• A desire to learn continuously through


one’s lifetime is a mark of a 21st century
learner.

• The International Commission on


Education for the Twenty-first Century to
UNESCO, headed by Jacques Delors,
identified learning throughout life as a key
to meet the challenges of the 21st century.

1. Learning to Know

• Learning to Know involves the acquisition and development of


knowledge and skills that are needed to function in the world.

• Examples of skills under this pillar of learning include literacy,


numeracy, and critical thinking.

2. Learning to Live Together

• Learning to Live Together involves the development of social skills and


values such as respect and concern for others, social and inter-personal
skills and an appreciation of the diversity among people.

• These skills would enable individuals and societies to live in peace and
harmony.

3. Learning to Do

• Learning to Do involves the acquisition of skills that would enable


individuals to effectively participate in the global economy and society.
• These skills are often linked to occupational success, such as vocational
and technical skills, apprenticeships, and leadership and management
competencies.

4. Learning to Be

• Learning to Be involves activities that promote holistic personal


development (body, mind and spirit), for an all-round ‘complete
person.’

• These include cultivating one’s self analytical and socials skills,


creativity, personal discovery and an appreciation of the inherent value
provided by these pursuits.

• An example under this pillar is a teacher who participates in training


workshops that will enhance his/her knowledge and skills in the
teaching-learning process.
