Brainstorming
Designing and Prototyping
Problem solving
Design Thinking
Critical thinking and problem solving
Critical thinking - focused, careful analysis of something to better understand it.
Problem solving - analysing the causes and effects of a problem and finding a better way.
Key critical-thinking skills to learn:
Analysing, evaluating and classifying
Explaining and arguing
Comparing and contrasting

Asking significant questions and exploring different solutions
Collaboration and team work
Collaboration - when students work together to accomplish a shared, common task,
activity or assessment.
Students developing conflict resolution skills
Learn how to give constructive feedback and work together collegially
To build good team collaboration skills, students must learn to:
Work effectively with different groups of friends and people, including people from diverse
cultures.
Be flexible and willing to compromise with team members to reach a common goal.
Demonstrate responsibility as a team member working toward a shared goal.
Communication
Expressing thoughts and opinions clearly,
communicating instructions, motivating
others through powerful speech.
Communication cannot be effective
unless the message is received and
understood.
To build good communication skills,
students must learn to:
Communicate well face-to-face during
activities, in the playground.
Use digital media and environments to
support personal and group learning.
Use online communication ethically and
constructively = No Cyber Bullying!
Why use the 4Cs in your
classroom?
