\n\tTrack description and topics of interest<\/strong>
\n<\/h2>\n

\n\tThinking skills have been identified and characterized in a variety of ways, such as, 21st Century skills, ABET student learning outcomes, science process skills, and computational thinking skills, to name a few. Regardless of the discipline, development of thinking skills has been shown to be crucial for students\u2019 success in the 21st century workplace. We define thinking skills as cognitive processes that human beings apply for sense-making and problem-solving. The precise nature and definition of thinking skills may vary across contexts or domains. We view the context or domain as a vehicle for learning of the thinking skills. Examples of such skills include critical thinking, engineering design, problem formulation and solving, creation and revision of scientific models, decision making, experimentation skills, data analysis and so on. The goal of this track is to provide a platform for researchers and educators to present their research on how technology can be used to develop and assess learners\u2019 thinking skills.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tWe welcome a variety of topics and research issues related to the design, development and evaluation of technology enhanced learning of thinking skills.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tTopics include:\n<\/p>\n

    \n
  • \n\t\tLearning environments for development of thinking skills\n\t<\/li>\n
  • \n\t\tTechniques for integration of ICT to promote thinking skills\n\t<\/li>\n
  • \n\t\tSystems \/ tools aimed at explicitly developing thinking skills\n\t<\/li>\n
  • \n\t\tPedagogical approaches and teaching-learning strategies for developing thinking skills\n\t<\/li>\n
  • \n\t\tCurriculum design for the development of thinking skills\n\t<\/li>\n
  • \n\t\tAssessment of thinking skills \u2013 techniques, tools and innovative approaches using technology\n\t<\/li>\n
  • \n\t\tMethodological issues and innovative methods related to research in TELoTS\n\t<\/li>\n
  • \n\t\tCurriculum design for the development of thinking skills\n\t<\/li>\n
  • \n\t\tModels, theories and frameworks underpinning TELoTS\n\t<\/li>\n
  • \n\t\tTransfer of thinking skills across domains and situations; techniques for fostering transfer; methods of assessing transfer of thinking skills\n\t<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    \n\tA paper submitted to the TELoTS track is expected to contain at least two of the following:\n<\/p>\n

      \n
    • \n\t\tDesign \u2013 This could be the description of a prototype system, or innovative curricular material, or model, for development of a thinking skill.\n\t<\/li>\n
    • \n\t\tDeployment \u2013 This could be a pilot or a large-scale deployment of system\/material, along with some evidence of effectiveness.\n\t<\/li>\n
    • \n\t\tEvaluation \u2013 This should be a formal educational research study, having strong empirical basis, drawing on relevant research methods.\n\t<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
