Intellectual Standards

Intellectual Standards:
Are essential to the assessment of thinking. Yet most students cannot name a single standard they use to assess thinking. It is therefore important to bring intellectual standards into daily classroom activities.

One way to move in this direction is to routinely ask students questions that require them to apply intellectual standards to their thinking.
