Raising Young Critical Thinkers in the Digital Age

Raising Young Critical Thinkers in the Digital Age | Literacy, Education and Common Core Standards in School and at Home | Scoop.it
Teaching kids how to curate information and discern what's trustworthy from what's bogus is a really important lesson for parents nowadays.

So it’s time to learn the art of curating the terabytes of content humans are bombarded with on a regular basis – it’s a survival skill and one that will provide an incredibly important advantage to kids in schools and the workplace of the future.
