The course, Critical Thinking and Reflective Practices’ introduces the students to critical thinking and reflective practices. The course consists of differentiating between good and bad thinking, asking good questions, how to apply critical thinking in different content areas, reflection, reflective practices, and how to use reflective practices for developing critical thinking.

This course will help you, the Student Teacher, understand, use, and apply a range of Information Communications Technologies (ICTs)—such as computers and the Internet, other audio and video equipment, mobile phones, and online resources and tools—as part of the teaching and learning process. During this course, you will collaborate with your peers to develop a learning activity that uses digital tools and resources to support student-centred learning.

The focus of this course is to provide you with the knowledge and skills regarding how ICTs can be used to engage students in the learning process, improve understanding of content as well as instructional and assessment practices, and enhance communication and collaboration in the classroom. By ‘student’, we mean here children in primary or lower secondary grades. To attain this end, Student Teachers will design and create instructional units in which technology plays a central role and implement these units with students.
