Transforming education: contemporary curricular trends for the 21st century
Abstract
This essay explores contemporary curricular trends that are transforming education. The objective is to expose trends such as; the personalization of learning, the interdisciplinary approach, educational technology and global and culturally relevant education, which impact teaching and learning. The methodology used is a review of recent scientific literature and analyze the advantages and disadvantages of each trend. Various methods and techniques used to implement these trends in the classroom were examined, including the use of technological tools, collaboration across disciplines, and the incorporation of diverse cultural perspectives. The results show that these trends can improve student motivation, engagement, and academic outcomes. However, challenges such as teacher preparation, digital equity and superficiality in learning were also identified. In conclusion, contemporary curricular trends offer significant opportunities to improve education, but it is crucial to address their challenges for effective implementation and positive impact on student learning. This analysis highlights the importance of continuing to research and adapt educational practices for a future of dynamic and relevant learning.
