Non-cognitive competence and critical-creative skills. A critical review of the current perspectives

In light of the current debate on the development of critical-creative transversal skills in younger generation and the nebulousness it brings, this work will focus on reconstructing and problematizing the main models within which critical-creative skills are currently systematized. These models — referable to the main three life skills, character skills and soft skills – have been interpreted starting from epistemological frameworks that support them and their training practices, highlighting, together with potentialities, also the main area of criticalities.
