I would add: Trans-disciplinary thinking; systems thinking for sustainability. Most people can not see the forest through the trees so miss the larger connections of the impacts that action, goods & services have on both environmental systems and human systems.

"Teachers regularly pose questions to their students, but the purpose and form of these questions can vary widely. This book is about a particular kind of question—one we call "essential." So, what makes a question "essential"? Let us begin by engaging you in a bit of inquiry using the following concept-attainment exercise to examine the characteristics of an essential question. The exercise has three parts, as explained in the next several paragraphs."

Teaching to teach critically is a big challenge for us, as teachers, nowadays due to the important impact technology has had in our daily lives; therefore, the topic of this article is very relevant since we need to change the way we teach. We need to adapt our curriculums in order to stop teaching a lot of content that our students can easily find on line, and start teaching how to analyze, interpret and approach appropriately all the information that our students receive through the constant use of technological devices.

Excellent questions to bring closure to a class Instead of the bell.

These would be great questions for the end of any and all PD sessions we do! Maybe they should take the place of the surveys we usually do?

I plan to use this list in my all of my classes. |
This article shares an updated version of KWL (What do I Know, What do I Want to know and what have I Learned). How many use this in their classrooms?
Check out this new version of the KWL chart by Silvia Rosenthal Tomlison. What we once called KWL is now the KWHLAQ.
* K stands for 'What do you KNOW?'
* W stands for 'What do you WANT to know?'
* H stands for 'HOW will you find out?'
* L stands for 'What have your LEARNED?'
* A stands for 'What ACTION will you take?'
* Q stands for 'What further QUESTIONS do you have?'
This new visual also includes suggestions under each category to help students make their "thinking and learning visible." For more information click through to the post.
