10
Transfer of Learning “the productive use of cognitive tools and motivations” (Corte, as cited by Woolfolk, 2002) 10 “the ability to apply knowledge or procedures learned in one context to new contexts” (Mestre, 2002)
11
Transfer of Learning “…when learning in one context with one set of materials impacts on performance in another context or with different but related set of materials, then transfer of training has occurred.” (Subedi, 2004) 11
12
Transfer of Learning knowledge learned new situations productive new skills or tasks applied / affect related 12
13
Transfer of Learning addition multiplication applied / affect example 13 productive new skills related
14
Transfer of Learning tighten a screw using a screwdriver no screwdriver? example use a coin or fingernail cannot tighten Positive transferNegative transfer 14
15
Transfer of Learning Negative transfer Functional fixedness – the inability to think of “new” ways to use learning. 15
16
Transfer of Learning Types of (positive) transfer: 1. Low road transfer 2. High road transfer reading writing using the computer driving a car riding a bike 16 using statistics for research ed psych principles for teaching
17
Transfer of Learning High road transfer Forward-reaching Backward-reaching learning statistics remembering how to compose a formal letter 17
18
Transfer of Learning Strategies 1. Put relevance to knowledge 18 2. Teach for understanding, not retention of facts

21
Critical Thinking “purposeful, reflective judgment (through) reasoned consideration of evidence… which results in interpretation, analysis… in deciding what to believe or what to do.” (Facione, 1992) 21
22
Critical Thinking conscious effort believe or not / action to take Interpret Analyze Explain Evaluate Infer Evidences Contexts Methods Standards 22
23
Critical Thinking MindfulnessMindlessness Conscious thinking Results to: -creation -being open -analyzing Thinking without analyzing Results to: -routinary reaction -one perspective -accepting without reason 23
24
Critical Thinking Non critical thinker Collects information Draws conclusion missing 24
25
Critical Thinking Critical thinker Collects information Draws conclusion Evaluates information Evaluates conclusion 25

Creative Thinking http://www.cartoonstock.com/directory/c/creative_thinking.asp 32 Definition edfd211-highorderthinkingskills-works-030512.ppt
33
Creative Thinking “the ability to think about something in novel and unusual ways and come up with unique solutions to problems” (Santrock, 2009) 33
34
Creative Thinking Product of creativity -intended -functional (Woolfolk, 2007) -not only in the arts (Sternberg, 2002) 34
35
Creative Thinking Myths about creativity Creativity is directly related to intelligence. Almost all creative people are intelligent but not all intelligent people are creative. 35
36
Creative Thinking Myths about creativity People are born creative. Creativity can be developed. 36
37
Creative Thinking Myths about creativity Creativity is intertwined with negative qualities. There are more “odd” people who are not creative. 37
38
Creative Thinking Three components that complete CREATIVITY: Creativity motivation process skill social 38

Creative Thinking PreparationIncubation InsightEvaluation Elaboration The Creative Process (Santrock, 2009) 39 -can be suspended by many moments of incubation and evaluation

Strategies 2. Design the learning environment 3. Go individual first, then by group 5. Focus on intrinsic motivation 4. Encourage taking risks 1. Believe Creative Thinking 41

43 Problem Solving http://www.behavioradvisor.com/ProblemSolving.html
44
44 Problem Solving Definition
45
Problem Solving the process of finding a suitable answer to a question, or a specific solution to a problem 45
46
Problem Solving Steps in problem solving 1. Realize the problem 2. List down steps or strategies to find a solution. 3. Decide on a solution and implement. 4. Evaluate. 46
47
Problem Solving Evaluate Was the problem solved? Was the goal achieved? Was the process efficient? Was the product effective? Evaluate in different contexts and times. 47
48
Problem Solving Approaches Sub-goaling Means-end analysis Algorithms Heuristics 48
49
Problem Solving Approaches Sub-goaling -setting smaller objectives to meet the bigger goal 49 Means-end analysis -starts with analyzing the goal (end) and finding the way to achieve the goal (means)
50
Problem Solving 50 Algorithms -solving problems based on set rules Heuristics -solving problems based on “rules” but does not assure the best solution
51
Problem Solving Teaching Problem Solving Skills 1.Make sure students clearly understand the problem. 2. Encourage students to think from different perspectives. 51
52
Problem Solving 3. Teach students the different strategies in solving problems. 4. Expose students to real-life problems. 52
53
Problem Solving Factors that hinder problem solving 1. Functional fixedness or fixation 2. Lack of motivation 3. Inability to control emotion 53
54
Problem Solving Learning strategies Problem-basedProject-based Objective: solve a problem Constructivist approach Emphasis on the process Concrete evidence of solution 54
55
High Order Thinking Skills Transfer of learning – application of knowledge in different contexts Critical thinking– purposeful judgment of evidence to reach a decision Problem solving – finding a suitable answer to a question Creative thinking– thinking of novel ways to find solutions 55..\CT109\ct109-WeHaveAProblem-030612.ppt ct109-WeHaveAProblem-030612.ppt

High Order Thinking Importance understanding concepts and solving problems independent thinking and problem solving solving more complex problems http://www.propinoy.net/2011/07/24/rebranding-the-philippines- giving-the-philippines-a-total-makeover/ office school society 56
