This document discusses using IT-based projects to develop higher thinking skills. It outlines a teacher's role in creating an environment that provides students with tools and facilities to facilitate learning. The process involves the teacher presenting a problem to the class, students finding information to respond to the problem, and organizing their findings. Traditional learning focuses on textbooks and facts while resource-based learning emphasizes inquiry, varied sources, and a focus on the learning process over products. The document also describes a 5-step process for simple IT-based creation that involves defining tasks, brainstorming, judging ideas, taking action, and allowing flexibility.
