9. A GOOD CRITICAL THINKER
Raymond S. Nickerson (1987) characterizes
a good critical thinker in terms of
knowledge, abilities, attitudes, and
habitual ways of behaving.
Here are some of the CHARACTERISTICS of
such a thinker:
• Uses evidence skillfully and impartially
• Organizes thoughts and articulates them
concisely and coherently
• Distinguishers between logically valid
and invalid inferences
• Suspends judgment in the absence of
sufficient evidence to support a decision
• Understands the difference between
reasoning and rationalizing
• Attempts to anticipate the probable
consequences of alternative actions

12. 2. Creativity
• Creativity is the practice of thinking outside the box:
students can learn how to be creative by solving
problems, creating systems, or just trying something
they haven’t tried before.
• Able to look at a problem from multiple perspectives
— including those that others may not see.
• Embracing their inner strengths from big-picture
planning to meticulous organization.
• Learning how to express it in healthy and productive
ways.
• Becoming motivated to share that creativity with
others.
• Creativity is contagious.
• Students will fail at some point, and some of their
ideas simply won’t work.
• The point of creativity is to encourage students to
think differently than convention demands.

19. 3. Collaboration
• Collaboration is the practice of working
together to achieve a common goal.
• They’ll probably work with other
people for the rest of their lives.
• Addressing a problem, pitch solutions,
and decide the best course of action.
• Learning that other people don’t
always have the same ideas that they
do.
• Bringing something unique to every
conversation.
• Encouraging students to look at
themselves through that second lens.
• Learning that they should speak up
when they have an idea.

25. 4. Communication
• Communication is the practice of conveying ideas quickly and clearly.
• Learning how to convey their thoughts in a way that others can understand them.
• That’s because text-based communications lack tone, which is critical to understanding the
context of someone’s words.
• Learning how to communicate effectively, includes minimizing tangents, speaking directly
to an idea, and checking other participants to make sure they’re engaged.
• Reading an audience
• The point is that as students practice communication, they become better at efficiently
conveying an idea without losing their point “in the weeds,” so to speak.
• With communication locked down, students can streamline their ideas and make a
positive impression on those around them.

30. How Do the Four C’s Work
Together?
• The four C’s of 21st Century skills let students create a whole that’s greater than the sum of
its parts.
• That may sound overly-generalized, and you may be right. But the skills themselves are so
general that it’s difficult to pin down what, why, or how students should learn the four C’s.
• It’s most accurate to say that students need the four C’s for any and every reason.
❑ Critical thinking teaches students to question claims and seek truth.
❑ Creativity teaches students to think in a way that’s unique to them.
❑ Collaboration teaches students that groups can create something bigger and better
than you can on your own.
❑ Communication teaches students how to efficiently convey ideas.
• Combined, the four C’s empower students to become one-person think tanks.
• Then, when those students get together, they can achieve almost anything!
