Journal Title: International Journal of Research in Social Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 10
Abstract
To provide opportunities to students to move beyond passive recipients of knowledge to knowledge builders, there is need to shift to new instructional strategy. Conventional methods of teaching aim at imparting dead material to the students without offering them opportunity to sharpen their minds. The power of reasoning, thinking, scientific attitude, understanding and retention are not developed among the students which is the need of digital age. Knowledge gained is useful only if it enhances reactive thinking so that the individuals can solve daily life problems. And one such instructional technique is the Six Thinking Hats technique that helps in the development of creative thinking and problem solving skills. This allow the students to look at a problem from a number of aspects. This technique not only helps the students to think but provides important outputs in ensuring discipline, acquiring desired learning outcomes and behaviors. It helps students to react in difficult situations.
