Critical Thinking and Problem Solving

- Critical thinking is the identification and evaluation of evidence to guide decision-making. A critical thinker uses broad in-depth analysis of evidence to make decisions and communicate his/her beliefs clearly and accurately.
- Problem solving is the ability to identify a situation, analyze all aspects of the problem, create an optimal solution and then reflect on the answer and process.
- Rationale: Students will apply knowledge and skills in practical ways to solve real world problems. The teacher provides the activities, experiences, and feedback needed for students to develop critical thinking and problem solving skills. Students want to be spoon fed answers and have instant results
