Abstract
This essay underscores the imperative of cultivating creativity, innovation, and teamwork (CIT) skills in high school students. Employing multi-stage random sampling from August to October 2023, 350 high school technology teachers were asked their opinions concerning what constituted CIT skills in their students. Expert questionnaire validation ensured reliable results. Utilizing descriptive statistics and second-order confirmatory factor (CFA) analysis, the research reveals endorsement of these skills by technology teachers. The model, aligning with the empirical data, highlights innovation's crucial importance, followed by creativity, and teamwork. The research contributes significantly to the literature by providing empirical evidence from technology teachers, offering insights into their perceptions. These results further highlight the educational strategies needed for nurturing a holistic innovative skill set among high school students. The findings, valuable for educators, policymakers, and researchers, fill a gap in enhancing educational practices and curricula to equip students for the 21st-century challenges.
