Tessa Gray - Research based wiki on thinking, learning and new curriculum. SOLO taxonomy

Good example of curriculum use on a wiki

Southbridge School has developed an inquiry learning model that details the steps children need to work through either individually or in small groups. We realised inquiry learning does not only have to be 'child-directed' but can also be used as a powerful method of 'teacher-directed' whole class curriculum delivery.

SOLO is a true hierarchic taxonomy - increasing in quantity and quality of thought * SOLO identifies five stages of understanding. Each stage embraces the previous level but adds something more. * SOLO is a powerful tool in differentiating curriculum and providing cognitive challenge for learners * SOLO allows teachers and learners to ask deeper questions without creating new ones * SOLO is a powerful metacognitive tool
