LAPORAN KHAS

It was a tremendous privilege tospeak to so many Malaysian

educators and leaders at theSKIK 2013 Conference in KualaLumpur in November. I am

happy to count all of them asnew colleagues! This article

provides a summary of theprinciples my USA-based team

used to design a nextgeneration teaching andlearning tool.

My team is responding to somepressing global problems in literacyacross the curriculum. These

problems include a high percentageof learners who:

struggle with academic &technical language (terminology)

are non-native speakers of thelanguage taught in schools

struggle to demonstrate

understanding of concepts,especially in STEM

NextGenerationTeaching &

Learning Tools

We find that the mostinteresting innovations arise

from practices, principles andpeople borrowed from differentfields that combine to create a

powerful solution. To address theabove problems, we borrowedthe principles of infrastructure

from the fields of civil andstructural engineering, andgained inspiration from our own

human bodys skeletal system.

What do bridges, roads, waterwaysand the human skeleton have to dowith teaching and learning? Delving

into some of the basic principlesprovides interesting connections

Infrastructure in a society: providesbasic needs; connects people, goodsand services; mobilises people to

advance the society; and gives accessto all people (equity). Additionally,

high quality societal

infrastructure is bothstable and flexible

at the same time.

People dont always need to followthe same path or route, they canconnect with each other for a variety

of purposes, and those with manydifferent needs all can benefit fromthe same systems and structures.

Hmmmthese are the sameprinciples we desire for teaching and

learning tools! How can we designtools for teachers and students that

create opportunities for HOTS?

We engineeredinstructionalinfrastructure that does

the following:

Uses a simple

colour-shapesystem that connectscontent/concepts

within and acrossdisciplines

Provides stable

accesstoacademic & technical

language through several yearsof school, and may even be usedat university and corporate

training levels Demonstrates multi-lingual,

multi-cultural, multi-disciplinary,

and pedagogical flexibility Bridgesthe physical and

digital worlds with hands-onmanipulatives and a mobile app

Mobiliseslearners to actively

engage each other in HOTS

Another key principle that engineersuse is called enabling environments.

These are the systems, rules andstrategies necessary for society to

enjoy maximum benefits fromphysical infrastructure.

In classrooms, teachers can createenvironments that enable creativity,communication, collaboration and

other 21st century skills. And professionaldevelopment will enable teachers!

Catherine Saldutti, the president of EduChange Inc.

of America shares her experience of interacting with

Malaysian educators.

Nick

Says:

Nick Symes, the Director ofOverseas Operations of ThinkingSchools International, UK,gives an overview of Habits ofMind (HOM). Please also find a link

to access a handbook on HOMwhich will be useful to students,teachers and even parents.

Getting the Habit!

Examples please?

Here I am, sitting thousands of kilometres away from all of you in Malaysia,

and I was wondering how the Habits of Mind programme is going on.

In order to help all of you in the i-THINK Showcase Schools where Habits of

Mind training has taken place, here are a few helpful tips and possible strategies.

Even if you arent from a Showcase School you can still benefit from

this article. Keep reading there is much to learn!

Have a look at the list of Habits of Mind below. I have tried to give a simple explanation of each one, but you may be able

to think of better ways of doing this. As you look at each one, ask yourself some questions:

What does this mean to me?

How good am I at this sort of behaviour?

How good are my students at this sort of behaviour?

What are Habits of Mind?

Put briefly, they are a collection

of 16 intelligent learning behav-

iours. They are a set of disposi-

tions developed by Professor

Arthur Costa and Bena Kallick

that resulted from research

undertaken that sought to

answer the following question:

What are the learning behaviours

that successful learners employ

that less successful learners do

not?

Lets be clear about what we

mean by a successful learner

this does not necessarily just

mean someone with lots of

qualifications. But it does mean

a learner who knows how to

behave intelligently when they

DON'T know the answer. Surely,

this is at the heart of becoming

an independent, lifelong learner

and something that we would

hope that all our students can

become.

When students

leave school, they will

no longer have you the teacher

to help, guide and assess them.

They will be on their own and

they will need to be self-

managing, self-modifying, self-

assessing and self-reflective, all

valuable assets for an effective,

independent learner.

Persisting

Managing impulsivity

Listening with understanding

and empathyThinking flexibly

Metacognition

Striving for accuracy

Questioning and posing

problems

Applying past knowledge to

new situations

Thinking and communicating

with clarity and precision

Gathering data through

all the senses

Creating, imagining,

innovating

Responding with wonderment

and awe

Taking responsible risks

Finding humour

Thinking interdependently

Remaining open to

continuous learning

Continuing with a task even though the outcome

is not immediately clear

Thinking before you act

Trying hard to understand the thoughts

and feelings of othersChanging your mind, suggesting another way, considering all ideas

Thinking about your thinking. Being aware of your own thoughts,

feelings and actions

Wanting to be exact, to do the best you can and to master

the given task

Developing strategies to solve problems

Applying what you already know to a new situation

When speaking or writing, t rying to communicate accurately

and clearly

Using all your senses: sight, hearing, touch, taste, smell

Producing original ideas through imagination

Finding the world fascinating, mysterious,

intriguing and phenomenal!

Being adventurous. Moving outside your comfort zone

Being playful. Looking at the funny side of things. Laughing at yourself!

Working with and learning from others. Being an active participant in aproductive group

Being open to learning new things. Admitting that you dont know the answer.

Enjoying learning new things

Help - there are 16!Do we have to do all of them?Where do we start?Dont panic! The first step is for a group of teachers in your school

to look at all 16, understand what each intelligent learning behaviour

means to you - and then identify which Habits of Mind do your

students NOT do well and would most benefit from doing better.

You will probably end up with a priority list of a maximum of 5.No it doesnt! But it gives

you a starting point. I will

return to this point later.

So we come upwith a list of 5.Does this mean

that we can forgetthe other 11?

LEARNING


8/13

14 15

LEARNING

I would suggest that you look at

your list of 5 (or maybe it is less than

that) and pick out the one that is top

of your priority list. This is where you

are going to start

What next?This is where the planning comes in. Lets imagine

that top of your list is persistence. Your students

give up too easily. They dont stick at it, they dont keep

trying. So, this is the Habit of Mind that you are going

to start with and you are going to plan a whole school

approach to persistence.

And then?

How do we develop a whole school

approach to persistence?

Is there anything else we need to think about?

Theres a lot tothink about here!

Preparing the environment

Create a drive team that can

plan and lead the work

But make sure that all the

teachers are aware of what is

going to be happening and

most importantly the reasons

why i.e. to help develop

independent, lifelong learners

Gather together as many

resources as you can that relate

to persistence.

Pictures that feature or

exemplify persistence

Stories of famous people that

have exhibited persistence

Fiction stories in whichpersistence features

Video clips YouTube is great

I came across this one today

just by putting in the word

persistence into the Youtube

search engine

http://www.youtube.com/

watch?v=lJ3C9SP8xRE

Those of you in the drive

teams from the Showcase

Schools, remember the clip

from Castaway where Tom

Hanks makes fire brilliant!

And really good for exploring

the strategies that he used to

maintain his persistence

Let me first emphasise that there is no one way of doing this. It is up to the school and the creativi ty of the teachers.

But, I will share a few ideas that my colleagues and I have seen work in other schools around the world.

they rate themselves at

persistence are they:

- Novice (completely new to

it, rarely do it, give up very

easily)

- Apprentice (do it, but have

to really think about it and

sometimes still perhaps

give up too easily)

- Practitioner (do it, and in

many different situations)

- Expert (the appropriate use

of persistence is almost

automatic behaviour)

Then ask them to think about

the situations where they find

persisting easier and perhapsmore difficult. Why is there a

difference? What strategies do

they use when they are

successful? Could they use

these strategies in the situations

where they find it more difficult

(This links with another Habit

of Mind Applying past

knowledge to new situations)

Ask the students to think about

the occasions when being

persistent would be really

helpful (however difficult it

might be!). And occasions

when being persistent is not

a good idea

Encourage the students to

write their own rubrics so

their own definitions of how a

novice at persistence might

behave, apprentice,

practitioner, expert

Students should reflect on

what strategies might help

them to be more persistent.

Some examples:

- Not giving in to distractions

(Managing impulsivity)

- Thinking of another waythrough a challenging

situation (Thinking flexibly

Questioning and posing

problems)

- Striving for accuracy

NB Remember the

question further up.So we come up with a

list of 5. Does this mean

that we can forget the

other 11?Notice what is

happening here you can link in

other behaviours to the one that is

the focus, in this case persistence,but I have just cited 4 other Habits of

Mind that might help with

persistence. So they have not been

forgotten!

The outcome from the section above

should be that the each student

should have constructed their own

understanding of persistence and

what it means for her/him. Now theyare ready for the next step

applying their understanding.

Applying

Students are then going into their

ordinary classroom lessons and

activities where the teachers will

be backing up the focus on

persistence. Ideas that might help:

In lessons. make sure that

there is explicit reference to

persistence

Where possible, introduce

examples of persistence

relevant to the subject setting

Where tasks demand it, tell the

students that they will be judged

not only their work but also on

how persistent they were

Give verbal and written feedback.

I really liked the way you stuck

at that task. I know you found

it difficult but you persisted.

Or I like the way you

persisted at that task. How didyou do that? What did you do

that helped you?

Develop subject based rubrics

persistence in science,

persistence in BM, persistence

in maths etc

At the end of a lesson, where

appropriate, ask students to

reflect on how persistent they

were.

Yes! Probably lots! But lets focus onfour only.

i) How long should we keep thefocus on one Habit of Mind beforemoving on to another?Always a difficult question!Perhaps 2 to 3 weeks. But whenyou move on to another Habit ofMind, dont think that you havedone persistence and can thenforget about it. Students need tocontinue to reflect on thisbehaviour and know when andhow they can use it effectivelyand teachers need to facilitate this

ii) Teachers as role modelsTeachers have to model thebehaviour. They have to lead fromthe front and set good examples.That can be difficult sometimes we are all human! Perhaps for ateacher to admit to their students

I should have been more persistentin that situation can be quite apowerful admission and mayencourage the students to striveharder

iii) Sharing good practice How are you going to share good

practice?a. A teacher has a brilliant idea and

tries it out it works. How isthat idea going to be sharedwith others? We learn fromeach other and sharing reallyhelps to expand ideas

b. A student really excels at beingpersistence. Interview them andrecord the interview share itwith others and add it to yourresource bank for future years.Might there be an opportunity todisplay student outcomes thatexhibit persistence. I recentlysaw a huge architectural map of

a school completed by an 11 yearold student it took himmonths. It is now on display asan example of persistence as

well as other Habits of Mind.(Striving for accuracy. Takingresponsible risks. Questioningand posing problems etc)

iv) Parents Let the parents know what you are

doing and the reasons why.

Yes there is and I wish you allgood luck, good thinking and goodHabits!

Think about how you would launch

the focus on persistence. Put up

displays around the school that

feature persistence using the

pictures you have collected, banners

about persistence, simple

encouraging explanations of

persistence like Stick at it!, Dont

give up!, Keep trying! By doing

this you are really emphasising the

focus for everyone in your school.

Introducing and understanding

Think about how the students will

be introduced to and develop an

understanding of persistence.

There needs to be occasions thatspecifically focus on persistence

perhaps an assembly, followed

up with a particular lesson

Use one of the stories that you

have collected and follow this

up with discussions

Or use one of the video clips

and again, follow this up with

discussions

The importance of the discussions

is to allow students to construct

their own understanding of what

is meant by persistence

Once they have developed

their understanding, then ask

the students to reflect on how

Universiti Putra Malaysia in

collaboration with The Institute For

Habits of Mind and The Art Costa

Institute of Thinking, Singapore is

proud to have organised the first

Habits of Mind Conference in

Malaysia.

The International Conference on

Habits of Mind 2013 (ICHOM 2013)

brought together experts in the field

of thinking to share their knowledge

on not only good thinking habits

but also how to develop good

thinkers. The conference was a

follow up to the 14th International

Conference on Thinking held in

Kuala Lumpur in 2009, hosted and

organised by Universiti Putra

Malaysia.

The Prime Ministers wife Datin Seri

Rosmah Mansor in her keynote

address at the opening ceremony of

ICHOM 2013 entitled Inculcating

Thinking Skills: Starting Them

Young said good teachers are

those who are able to nurture a

generation of high order thinkers.

She said developing thinking skills

among students was one of the

main challenges faced by todays

teachers and educators and good

teaching was not just about

achieving specific curriculum

objectives but also about

developing general thinking skills

and learning behavior.

She said teachers needed to be

enthusiastic about developing skills

in teaching for thinking and

integrating them into their lessons

to create thinking classrooms, and

developing policies to bring about

thinking schools.

Thinking skills should also be

continuously embedded into the

education system from the

foundation years until tertiary and

beyond. Thinking skills are essential

because we need to foster a

capable and efficient generation

who can see beyond boundaries,

limitations and self-interest, and to

be able to take on the complexities

of tomorrows challenges, she said.

ICHOM 2013 was a platform for the

meeting of great thinkers and

innovative minds from across the

globe that brought together leaders,

thinkers and practitioners who were

interested in working together to

nurture citizens of tomorrow with

effective thinking skills.

The conference was a good

opportunity for participants to:

Receive latest knowledge by

well-known experts in the field

of thinking

Bring together experts and

novices in the field of thinking to

network and share experiences

and knowledge on habits of the

mind

Showcase innovative

approaches to thinking

and creativity

across disciplines.

Among the speakers who spoke on

a number of different areas with the

context of Habits of Mind were

Professor Art Costa, an emeritus

professor of education at California

State University and founding

director of the Institute for Habits of

Mind, Dr Bena Kallick, co-founder of
