Students use digital tools to broaden their perspectives and enrich their learning by collaborating with others
and working effectively in teams locally and globally. Students:
a. use digital tools to connect with learners from a variety of backgrounds and cultures, engaging with them in
ways that broaden mutual understanding and learning.
b. Student-centered learning and knowledge creation (creating original data and or producing original
products as a result of engaging in a project): Students are creating their own original work based on
the knowledge they’ve learned in class.
c. Higher-order thinking: Students achieve the highest order of thinking, which is create because they
are creating their own piece of writing using their own opinions on a topic.
d. Students publishing their original work to others who will use/care about their product: KidPub is a
publishing website for writing, so the students and teachers on there care about writing and enjoy
talking about it with others.
