Communicative, caring, creative literacy
What is communicative, caring, creative literacy? It is a blend of 3 teaching-learning foundations. Communication relates to the interpersonal ability to understand pears and to be understood in a productive pro-active way. Care is the ability to empathetically find out the others' needs, and make the best possible efforts to provide the support responding to those needs. It is a personal ideal to communicate based on. In the classroom, teachers can foster it by modeling it: Try to learn the needs of students and respond accordingly, so students reciprocate. Creativity in the classroom reflects novelty: a new idea, a surprising insight, an original learning product. Practicing it in school fosters growth, entrepreneurship and innovation.
Learning Cycle
