DiscussionsDiscussion Topic: How can we teach people how to make judgements?
Up one levelGiven what Seely Brown says in the following, can you suggest how people can be taught to make judgements?
...Seely Brown suggests a third and substantially more subtle shift pertains to forms of reasoning. Reasoning classically has been concerned primarily with deductive, abstract types of reasoning. But what is happening to today�s kids as they work in this new digital medium has much more to do with bricolage than abstract logic It has to do with the ability to find something - an object, tool, piece of code, document-and to use it in a new way and in a new context. You have to be able to decide whether or not to believe or trust those things So in some interesting sense the need for making judgments is greater than ever.
