DEVELOPING 4K COMPETENCIES IN TEACHING HISTORY (ON THE EXAMPLE OF THE THEME OF THE SECOND WORLD WAR

Abstract

The modern education system aims not only to provide knowledge but also to develop essential 21st-century competencies — critical thinking, creativity, communication, and collaboration (4C). In history teaching, the development of these skills promotes active student engagement, analytical thinking, reasoning, and teamwork. Using the topic of the Second World War as an example makes it possible to effectively integrate cognitive, educational, and practical aspects of learning, helping students become independent, creative, and responsible individuals.
