ABSTRACT

Core literacy was first proposed by the organization for economic cooperation and development (OECD). He pointed out that countries should cultivate the core knowledge, problem-solving ability and correct emotional attitude of students in the 21st century. As a result, countries have set off a frenzy of discussion on core literacy. Core literacy is the key to curriculum reform and the source of formulating curriculum standards. Recently, researchers continue to study the core literacy in domestic curriculum, but there is little discussion on the core literacy in foreign curriculum reform. Therefore, the main purpose of this study is to study the core literacy in the curriculum standards of South Korea and Singapore, and to provide some concrete and feasible development directions for the future curriculum reform in China.
