to make good decisions.
• Teachers play a significant role in supporting learners with technology. As a role
model, teachers should display and practice critical thinking processes, so that
the learners can imitate them. Here are the ways:
• Ask the right questions: Critical thinking questions should ask for clarity,
accuracy, precision, relevance, depth, breadth and logic.
for clarity: can you give examples of…
for accuracy: what pieces of evidence support your claim?
for precision: exactly how much…
Breadth: What do you think will the other group say about the issue?

(Guildford 1986 & Torrance 1994 in Egbert, 2009)
• FLEXIBILITY means able to use many points of view.

Creativity is not merely a set technical skills, but it also
involves feelings, beliefs, knowledge and motivation.

• MODIFY/MAGNIFY/MINIFY – Make a change, enlarge,
decrease
• PUT – to another use. Find other uses.
• ELIMINATE – reduce, remove.
• REVERSE – Turn upside-down, inside out, front side
back
All together, the strategies will be labelled as SCAMPER
