“…In Malaysia, the strategies to enhance 21st century learning are widely emphasised in the teaching methods used to deliver lessons in class. The initiatives to improve education have included using technology to promote a plan for an educational blueprint that has been applied to the country's national curriculum (Izhar et al, 2022). Table 6 summarises the results of publications based on geographical distribution.…”

“…The main stages involved in the method are: (i) identifying the topic, scope, and eligibility; (ii) screening those identified, and (iii) selecting the relevant ones. Data were extracted on 10 March 2022 using the following query: TITLE-ABS-KEY-(('21stcentury*') AND (education* OR learning*) AND (covid*)) on the Scopus database and the search was then limited to 2020-2022, which were the years when the COVID-19 outbreak affected the whole globe (Izhar et al, 2022). The query resulted in 284 documents.…”

“…The 21st century is gradually becoming the 'Information Age' and as such, learners are now faced with new challenges in their educational development (Izhar et al, 2022;Liu et al, 2020). It is no longer enough for learners to have basic school skills, they now need to be able to learn on their own, construct knowledge by themselves and understand its meaning at the same time, which could become challenges for some of the students (Fletcher et al, 2020).…”

“…21st century learning is not a new idea; in fact, it is very similar to the practices advocated in the Industrial Revolution. The use of technology in education goes back somewhat and is often interpreted as a kind of de-skilling by the students while teachers do not feel inclined to use it until they felt it necessary in the classroom (Izhar et al, 2022). For example, during COVID-19 the global control of movement meant that online teaching and learning had to be rapidly implemented to enable education to continue.…”

“…According to Rogers (2003), technology can be physical products such as smartphones, and virtual products such as software, ideas, and practices. The use of technology in education is probably best described as a positive force that has influenced the way that the school syllabus is taught (Izhar et al, 2022), and technology is now used for providing resources, instant communication, and collaboration to promote learning. Subsequently, it has now become one of the important assets in 21st century learning (Hofer et al, 2021).…”

The concept of 21st century learning aims to prepare people to live and work in a more advanced environment. Hence, the objective of this paper is to explore the extent of publications on the topic of 21st century learning and COVID-19 in the Scopus database. Keywords used for analysis were TITLE-ABS-KEY-((‘21stcentury*’) AND (education* OR learning*) AND (covid*)) with the analysis based on (i) document and source types, (ii) citation trend, (iii) topic of discussion, and (iv) regional distribution. Four steps of research protocol were adopted: (i) topic, scope and eligibility, (ii) identification, (iii) screening. A total of 105 documents were then used for further analysis. ‘Article’ and ‘Journal’ under the ‘Document’ and ‘Resources’ Type registered the most citations and were assumed to be of most interest, while the Citation Trend showed an increasing number of citations of these publications. E-learning was the most frequently discussed topic, and the United States was the region most actively conducting research in this area. The high number of annual citations suggests that this area is a promising one for research. Although the most frequently referenced publications were about students' development of 21st century skills, there is still a gap in the field for educators. Further research would speed up the development of the educators’ skills and promote the use of 21st century skills.
