The information age is changing how we experience the world and
interact with it. This has implications for young people and their
learning both in and out of the classroom. This book offers
practical strategies for working with young people, helping
educators and parents understand and react to this changing
situation. The print dominated society led to linear thinking while
the electronic world is interconnected, dynamic and ever changing.
Linear thinking isn't enough anymore. To be successful our children
need additional skills. We introduce the concept of a tangible
world and virtual world and show how to make the most of both
worlds by staying safe, by knowing how to move within the highly
stimulating, interconnected world of the internet as well as when
to disconnect and think more deeply, to become skilful thinkers,
who understand how they think. This book offers practical ways to
develop and deepen thinking at home and at school with both
curriculum content and real world home issues. We explore the power
of well-formed questions and questioning techniques, the concept of
mindset, the power of failure and the dangers inherent in the wrong
kinds of praise.
