C P R A WAY OF PERSEVERING

• Critical Thinking is “Reflective and Recursive”
• Critical Thinkers “recognize the need to struggle with confusion and unsettled questions over time in order to achieve deeper understanding and insight.”
• Students “need to gain insight into the need for intellectual perseverance.”

How might we teach to educate, equip, and empower our students to persist from confusion to resolution?
In search of a way of being as a Math Teacher to implement STEM initiatives where Strategies That Engages Minds are regularly applied. --------------- Developing a Growth Mindset by Design ----------------

New Heart for Teaching & Learning
New Breath of Fresh Air where Questions, Not Answers, are the Primary Focus
New Strategies That Engages Minds
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) consists of the use of chest compressions and artificial ventilation to maintain circulatory flow and oxygenation during cardiac arrest.
Why Confusion? Research --- math anxiety - linked to poor math performance
First Priority --- build confidence - provide students confidence-building exercises that appear challenging but ensure success
Gradually, continually, develop a Growing Resiliency
Create a Classroom Environment of Respect & freedom to fail
Intentionally seek to replace harmful confusion with inquisitiveness

Thought: What if we graded the quality of students’ questions rather than their answers?
Relating science and/or math concepts to engineering
Moving from Confusion towards Curiosity and Creativity

In search of Relevant Solutions
aGAP 2016-2017 Project Invitation aGAP – Advancing Global Awareness Possibilities
October – December 2016 How might we make positive changes in our local environment?
Let’s discuss in our own classes several areas of concern regarding our local environment that we think we may be able to make some positive difference.
Then, let’s come together and share our ideas, help each other generate possible solutions, and encourage one another to take some action to make a difference.
February – May 2017 How have we been shaped by our ‘history’? In what ways should we shape ‘ourstory’ in the next fifty years?
Let us examine how our personal and cultural identity is shaped by our environment and how our identity might be shaping the world we live in. Then, let’s engage in a Cultural Exchange where we seek to better understand who we are in light of our own personal, national and world history. As we explore significant changes over time, throughout our world history, let us develop together a few essential questions.
Then, let’s come together in international teams to research, analyze, reflect, and decide how we may engage in changing possibilities for our present and future reality together. [email protected]

Exploring Local and Global Issues within International Team Collaborations
Edorble Pioneers
21 Teachers – 16 Schools – 13 countries – 545 students
– 32 international teams
Giving Students Voice & Choice to Explore their own Creative Solutions within International Teams to address Real-World Issues they Care about.
Exhale Confusion and Inhale Confidence and Courage to tackle more Challenging and Complex Problems
What Strategies will we use to reach Resolution?
Instructional Frameworks • Content Strategies • Literacy Strategies • STEM Strategies Rubrics of Expectations

Confusion
What’s one area right now that your students or staff are confused about or stuck in or desire/need to grow into? How is this evident?
Persistence
How might you help them move from Confusion to Resolution? What questions might guide your path?
Resolution
What do people need to know? How will they come to know it? When will it be evident that they know it? Why does it matter?
Persevere in Problem-Solving
