Course IV – Level I: Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS)
👉 Move beyond rote learning – empower your students to think, analyze, and create.
What you’ll learn:
- The core framework of HOTS (analysis, evaluation, creation) and how it differs from lower-order learning.
- Practical strategies to design lesson plans and activities that build higher-order skills.
- How to use questions, projects, and discussions to spark critical and creative thinking.
- Subject-wise applications of HOTS in Math, Science, Languages, and Humanities.
- Tools to assess whether students are truly engaging at a thinking level, not just memorizing.
Who this course is for:
- Teachers who want to upgrade their classrooms from knowledge-based to thinking-based.
- Parents and tutors aiming to build problem-solving and creativity in children.
- Education leaders and trainers designing 21st-century skill programs.
- Anyone curious about how real learning happens beyond textbooks.
Why this course is unique:
- Moves past buzzwords – HOTS here is taught as a practical, teachable method.
- Rooted in global education frameworks but simplified for any classroom.
- Blends critical thinking (logic, reasoning) and creative thinking (innovation, imagination).
- Offers ready-to-apply activities and assignments for instant classroom use.
By the end of this course, you will:
- Understand the levels of thinking and how to take students upward.
- Be able to design engaging questions, tasks, and projects that stimulate HOTS.
- Know how to measure thinking outcomes, not just memory.
- Position yourself as a teacher who develops future-ready learners.
