This document discusses ways to help children develop critical thinking skills using technology tools. It begins by defining critical thinking and explaining why it is important for avoiding bad decisions. Some core critical thinking skills are listed but not described. It is noted that critical thinking can be learned with instruction and practice. Several apps and games are then described that can help teach critical thinking skills, such as Quandary, Traffic Jam, 7 Little Words, Idea Sketch, Critical Thinking Insight, Critical Thinking University, and Critical Thinking Basic. References for further information on teaching critical thinking are provided at the end.

This document discusses the concepts of information fluency, visual fluency, numeracy, and media fluency. It notes that digital technologies have changed the information landscape by increasing information quantity and introducing new formats like images, data, and sounds. The concept of "fluency" is presented as an emerging idea that emphasizes skills like analysis, creativity, and critical thinking over basic literacies. Different models for teaching fluencies in academic libraries are considered, including integrating instruction into courses and creating learning spaces for collaboration. The document advocates helping students develop advanced skills and focusing on learning outcomes.
We live in an increasingly technology-based society. Children need to be prepared to navigate a world and a workforce in which computers are an essential part of daily life. The Internet can be used as a learning tool or a weapon. Social networking sites, like Facebook and Twitter, are popular Internet destinations for millions of children nationwide. Unfortunately, these sites are also popular with sexual predators, cyber bullies, and con artists. Attend this informative workshop to gain a clearer understanding of the issues children are facing, and what message to communicate to your child about making safer decisions.
The document describes a "Mystery Class" project that can be implemented in classrooms to teach various standards through an interdisciplinary approach. The project involves students collecting sunrise and sunset data over 11 weeks to track changes in photoperiod. Students are assigned to cooperative groups to solve weekly clues and track possible "Mystery Classes" based on the changing photoperiod data. On the final day, students will reveal what the Mystery Classes were by applying research, critical thinking, collaboration, and prediction skills developed throughout the project.
Apps for Teaching and Learning the Common CoreKristi Richburg
This document discusses apps that can be used to teach and learn the Common Core State Standards. It provides overviews of popular app marketplaces and built-in accessibility features for Android and Apple devices. Examples are given of apps in various categories like creating, communicating, collaborating, evaluating, and gaining global perspective. Pre-loaded apps, as well as examples for planning and presenting, learning and creating, and reaching all learners are summarized. The document encourages joining a wiki for more app recommendations related to teaching the Common Core State Standards.
