 Thinking

 

One of the aims of the experiment is to help you improve your thinking skills by using ICT when you need to. Some types of thinking take more time to get used to. Here's what we are going to try to develop:

 

Easy thinking: Asking KNOWLEDGE questions like "What happened...?", "Name the....", "Decribe what happened when..."

 

Asking UNDERSTANDING questions like " What do you think..?", "Can you explain in your own way...?",

 

Getting harder: Asking USING INFORMATION questions like

"Can you think of another situation when..?",

"How would you organise this group of facts...?"

 

Asking ANALYSING questions like: "How is this different from..?"

, "Can you explain why this happened..?",

 "Compare what happened..."

 

Really thinking quite hard now! : Asking USING INFORMATION IN NEW WAYS questions like:

"can you design a...?",

Devise your own way to...?", "Knowing what you do, invent a new way to....?"

 

Asking EVALUATION questions like:" What is your opinion of...?",

 "What changes would you recommend...?", "Which is most important...?"

 

You will get a list of these questions and words to use on bookmarks to use for the two weeks.
