    "Today's math curriculum is teaching students to expect -- and excel at -- paint-by-numbers classwork, robbing kids of a skill more important than solving problems: formulating them. "
  • Celeste Hardy on 24 May 10
     
    I know my students are learning how to use a text book, take them outside and measure/photograph a problem and they are left hanging. This is a great view on how to get students to discover knowledge. It is a powerful tool.

    So, in the interest of preparing for teaching a new course next year, and wanting to sort TED out a bit, I've created the following list based on disciplines (organizing knowledge or research by discipline is, it should be pointed out, in stark contrast to the real objective of TED Talks in general). I really like this TED fella, and I hope he doesn't mind:)

    Adrian did a full day PD with our Primary staff at the start of 09. The focus was on integrating ICTs into the curriculum. It had a significant impact on the teachers, and they are still talking about how much fun they had.

  • Good thinkers certainly have thinking skills. But they also have more: Motivations, attitudes, values and habits of mind all play key roles in good thinking, and in large part it is these elements that determine whether people use their thinking skills when it counts.

      This is the key behind "Dispositions." Yes, people need the skill/abiity to think critically, but this doesn't tend to happen unless they have a desire to do so.
  • What Kinds of Thinking Dispositions Are There?
    • Tom March

      This is where other frameworks for thinking could be used as well. If a school has been working with Art Costa's Habits of Mind or Robert Marzano's Dimensions of Learning, these can be used here. The main point is that "enculturation" is the solution, not "teaching" critical thinking.

      Suggestion: this is where an online space, focused on intrinsically motivating experiences is an asset. Changes in thinking and motivation require substantial time and repetition.
