Domain C3 Encouraging students to extend their thinking
How this paper is set up • Intro-introduce the topic • Explain the parts and reasons for independent, creative, critical thinking • Describe how to stimulate independent, creative, critical thinking • Conclusion
Why is this so important • The more chances students have to figure out problems and obstacles in school, the more it will help them in the future. • Students will learn to ask and think deeper into a problem or lesson whenever they learn something new! • Teachers encourage students to develop and have confidence in their own ability to thinkindependently, creatively, and critically.
Why should students extend their thinking? • Stretch their thinking beyond low-level thinking tasks because it can be monotonous and sometimes boring • Example: Memorizing and taking notes • Lessons should include ways for students to be independent, creative and critical thinkers instead
Find examples of these: • Independent Thinking • Creative Thinking • Critical Thinking
What NOT to do • Teacher requires questions that require only yes or no answers • Teacher does not allow “wait time” after asking questions • Teacher does not accept new ways to complete a task • Teacher does not encourage sharing thoughts/comments • Teacher does not allow students to work together
Conclusion • Extended thinking requires thinking • It helps students to recognize the relationship between skills or techniques • Students will gain the ability to analyze situations and apply relevant learning to the “real world”
