Higher order thinking skills are essential to teach students not only to use in class but outside the classroom. Higher order of thinking is going beyond memorizing information. Having this skill is important because students will look at the bigger picture and think passed what they are currently being taught. For example, students will memorize for test and quizzes and the information will only last in short term memory. By memorizing information you don’t give yourself the chance to understand what is being taught. With memorizing, you will not be able to use the information in the future at all. To be successful at higher order thinking skills, you will need the combination of remembering, understanding, applying, analyzing, evaluating and creating.

 

As an aspiring teacher I plan on utilizing higher order thinking skills in the classroom by first repetition and connecting this lesson to a prior lesson or prior knowledge they already have. This will cause the students to remember and understand what they were taught. Then they will apply their knowledge by making up their own problems and solving them. Next we will analyze and evaluate their own work and see if they need extra help. This will have the students think for themselves and really learn what is being taught to them.
