Mind Shift- Week 3

In chapter 13 of Jacobs book she talks about shifting the way we think. She highlights three mind-shifts #1 FROM knowing right answers TO knowing how to behave when answers are not readily apparent. #2 FROM transmitting meaning TO constructing meaning. #3 FROM external evaluation TO self-assessment (p.223-224). These three mind-shifts are necessary for teachers to embrace if we want to change the curriculum into a more modern curriculum that will not only give students the knowledge to go into the world and become successful adults, but it will teach them to be able to think for themselves, to be able to solve problems, and to be able to be beneficial assets to society.
