Abstract
In this study, the comparison of 21st century learner and teacher skills of physical education and sports teachers and teacher
candidates and the role of 21st century learner skills on 21st century teacher skills were examined. Research is in relational
scanning model. The sample of the study consists of 171 physical education and sports teachers working in Kayseri province
and 184 students who are physical education and sports education students of Erciyes University Faculty of Sport Sciences. The
sample consisted of 171 physical education teachers and 184 teacher candidate (total N = 355) selected by random sampling
method from the universe. In this research, 21st learner skills use scale developed by Göksün (2016) and 21st century teacher
skills use scale developed by Göksün (2016) were used as the data collection tool. T-test and multiple regression analysis were
used for data analysis. According to the findings, there was no significant differences in 21st century learner skills of teacher
and teacher candidates, but significant differences were found in 21st century teacher skills. While the 21st century teachers'
skills are predicted by innovative, cooperation and flexibility skills, the prospective teachers are predicted by cognitive skills.
Key words: 21st century learner skills, 21st century teacher skills, physical education and sports teacher and candidate.
