Abstract
Learning in 21st is learning in knowledge era. The functions of 20th schools and universities need to change to foster new way of learning. A transition must be made to deal with the traits of Gen-Y and perhaps Gen-M (multi-generation) to create new ways of learning. A global reach to educational resources from anywhere and at any time, the functions of schools as information deliverers diminish significantly. To foster non-assessment based learning, there is need to provoke learning in multiple dimensions. QTiME learning is such an attempt with QTiME specific learning quadrants enabled by simplistic, yet universal and actionable steps. These steps promote cyclical learning to continuously bridge the learning gaps. The QTiME specific dimensions, learning quadrants. the steps and their goals are a paradigm shift in learning to deliver a 21st century learning outcomes.
