The 21st century skills of the school library ―Keyword is "Why ? "―

Abstract

Assessment and teaching of 21st century skills were defined by P. Griffin and B. Mcgaw. When we focus on various contents we can assume that school library could contribute as the leading role not to mention as the supporting one. Keyword is "Why? " I’ve worked as a school-librarian for a long time, and have witnessed children’s "Why? " occur. Through my reference service with children, "Why? " started to occur in me as well. To clarify my awareness or question I would like to propose a concrete idea of the 21st century skills of the school library.
