| Summary: | AbstractThe purpose of this study was to analyze the current status of faculty members’ pedagogical competence in developing 21st century skills at selected universities in Ethiopia. The study employed a mixed-explanatory, sequential research design. It was an investigation done by collecting data from faculty members (n = 322) and students (n = 327) through a questionnaire administered at the selected universities. It also used 10 interviewees and three classroom observations. The result showed that faculty members’ performance on 21st century teaching and learning competencies such as developing skills in critical thinking and problem solving, creativity and innovation, collaboration, communication, and information communication technology could not be considered satisfactory. The findings suggested that urgent interventions needed to be undertaken to develop university faculty members’ 21st century pedagogical competence in the selected universities of Ethiopia.
