- Abstract
Science and technology continue to develop and bring about changes and new orders in various fields of human life, including the education system. The implication is that current learning practices must be oriented towards learning following the demands of human competence in the 21st century. This study aims to obtain information about 21st century skills that are important to implement in elementary school classrooms. The method used is a systematic literature review of a number of data related to 21st century skills. The results show that six skills must be instilled in elementary schools, character, critical thinking, creativity, citizenship, collaboration, and communication, so-called the 6 Cs. The 6 Cs are important because elementary school students must be equipped with various skills to have more complex skills, have mastery of technology, and understand information in a globalized world. This research impacts the availability of information about the 6 Cs for elementary school students and opens opportunities for further research on the use of appropriate methods and learning media, and conditions learning environments to develop 6Cs in elementary schools as a whole.
