  • "They are tools that lead to insight and understanding. If all
    you have is the technology, you are not an information producer, you are just
    a consumer."
  • McKenzie noted that many states
    are changing their standardized tests to require more original thought and inferential
    reasoning.

  • • Instead of simply asking
      better questions, encourage me to design my own questions. Teach me how to look
      for patterns in information. Teach me how to take notes with a purpose, how
      to organize my ideas as I take notes. Ask me to defend my choice in the form
      of a presentation.
    • Instruction in the coalition's
      schools is based on inquiry, on students' asking and teachers' guiding the exploration
      of "essential questions." Perry said: "We started out with each
      team raising its own essential questions. Helping kids to find their own voices.
      We ask: 'What is it that you think? What is your evidence? And what are the
      consequences of you holding these ideas?' "
