Increasing students' engagement in the classroom and providing a valuable environment for students to practise 21st century skills could be some of the major challenges facing the teacher. The teacher can have a large role to play in terms of encouraging the students to be more actively engaged in the classroom and ensuring the classroom is suitable for pursuing 21st century skills, especially communicating, collaborating, creative and critical thinking skills (4Cs). The 4Cs are increasingly considered as potential requirements for future workplaces and society in general. As such, students should be more engaged in the classroom in pursuit of content knowledge and 21st century skills. The teacher can overcome these challenges by equipping the smart classroom with Multi-touch tables and 3D printers. The features of a Multi-touch tables and 3D printers provide opportunities for the teacher to design robust collaborative learning activities that can increase students' engagement and foster students' 4Cs.
