(Lesson 7 ) IT for Higher Thinking Skills and Creativity

In the traditional information absorption model of teaching, the teacher organizes and presents information to student-learners. He may use a variety of teaching resources to support the lesson such as:


Chalkboard

Videotape


Newspaper

Magazine


• Photos

Knowledge

Comprehension

Application

• The presentation is followed by discussion and the giving of assignment. This teaching approach has been proven successful for achieving learning outcomes following the lower end of Bloom’s taxonomy:


• Today, students are expected to be not only cognitive, but also flexible, analytical and creative. In this lesson, there are methods proposed for the used of computer-based technologies as an integral support to higher thinking skills and creativity.


To define the higher level thinking skills and creativity, we may adopt a framework that is a helpful synthesis of many models and definitions on the subject matter.

The upgraded project method

Modern

teacher can now be guided on his goal to help student to achieve higher level thinking skills and creativity beyond the ordinary bench mark of the students passing, even excelling achievement tests.


• The project method for higher learning outcomes consist in having the students work on projects with depth, complexity, duration and relevance to the real world.


• Project method , there is a tighter link between the use of projects for simply coming up with the products to having thre students undergo the process of complex /higher thinking under the framework of the constructivist paradigm.
