Beth Dichter's insight:
Here is another way to have students think about their thinking. The Six Hats was written by Edward de Bono, and provides one way for students to organize their "thinking and decision making skills."
Each had is a different color and each represents a different way you might approach thinking.
* The white hat is about data and information. Think of it as a neutral position.
* The red hat looks at emotions.
* The yellow hat had a positive point of view.
* The black hat is more cautious.
* The green hat is for creative thinking and new ideas.
* The blue hat is for thinking about thinking (metacognition).
The post includes two additional visuals. Many students might find the process of thinking about what hat they would wear to help them determine the best way to approach specific areas.
I think IEP meetings could be more productive if the 6 Thinking Hats approach was used. What do you think?
A fresh take on the Thinking Hats - a great tool for writing blog reflections and other individual as well as collaborative work.
