The aim of this literature study is to: 1) Find out whether social studies learning at school is related to the skills needed in the 21st century. 2) Identify what skills can be obtained through social studies learning at school. 3) Explain how to learn and apply the development of 21st century skills in social studies learning. The articles analyzed are the results of empirical and conceptual studies. The research results show that the 2006 Curriculum, the 2013 Curriculum, and the Merdeka Curriculum utilize K21 differently in social studies learning.
