This keynote address by Tony Wagner at the PDE Annual Conference in 2011 emphasizes the importance of transforming education to foster higher-order thinking skills such as critical and divergent thinking. It calls for a shift to a constructivist learning approach that promotes authentic assessment and real-world connections. Educators are encouraged to adapt teaching methods and utilize technology to create engaging, inquiry-based learning environments. The focus is on student output and developing cognitive skills through collaborative work, formative assessments, and opportunities for exploration.
