In the Industrial Age, students learned Reading, wRiting, and aRithmetic.

Those composition and ciphering skills were considered educational basics necessary for every citizen.

Now, however, our students need to master more complex skills for coping with the ever-increasing flow of information in all kinds of new formats.

 

I believe that we need to emphasize the following new (yet not really) complex, higher-order thinking skills:

  • Reasoning = cognitive skills
  • Reconnoitering = performance skills
  • Responsibility = ethical choices

 

in order for our kids to be effective and self-reliant information consumers and producers.

Reasoning:

Reconnoitering:

Responsibility:

Asking questionsBalancing choicesCredibility
Arranging data

Building bridges

Conscience
Assessing knowledge

Best practices

Consequences

= Aptitudes

= Abilities

= Attitude
