0 "The exercise of ordering your favourites…ranking one a level higher than another, and then articulating why you chose the way you did-requires a depth and clarity of consideration and comparison that inspires richer appreciation and enjoyment."
Michael J. Gelb, How to Think Like Leonardo da Vinci

What is ranking?
0Making Lists0Putting things in order from
0 Best to worst0 Most important to least important0 Favourite to least favourite
0Simple Ranking exercises0 Parachute debate0 Favourite restaurants0 Worst villain in TV soaps

What makes Visual Ranking different from any other type of ranking exercise?
0 It is visual0 It is electronic0 It allows for articulation of the reasons behind your choices0 It can be saved in different versions and revisited any time

Encouraging Higher Order Thinking
0Work in groups0Evaluate each ranking0Reach consensus0 Justify your choices0Compare with other groups

How do you use it in a classroom?
0Brainstorm and then create a list to rank0Make a rank list as an introduction to a lesson0Make a rank list to help learners process data they
have gathered
![Page 13: Thinking with Technology](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062814/5681684f550346895dde4d3b/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Visual Ranking goes mobile
0Learners can download the app onto their mobile devices
0The Teacher Workspace remains web based0Get the app from the Play Store (Android) or the I
store (Apple)0Read the Teachers Guide

0Students use higher-order thinking skills when they analyze cause and effect.

The Seeing Reason Tool
0CAUSAL MAPPING 0Maps CAUSE and EFFECT relationships0Helps students analyse complex systems eg
0 If x happens then y will happen0 a was caused by b0 What caused z to happen?0 Are a and x linked in any way?

0 "People generally quarrel because they cannot argue."
Gilbert Chesterton (1874-1936)English writer
![Page 23: Thinking with Technology](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062814/5681684f550346895dde4d3b/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
The Showing Evidence Tool
0Tool to develop argument0Evaluation of evidence0Making decisions
0Helps learners to construct well-reasoned arguments supported by evidence, using a visual framework
![Page 24: Thinking with Technology](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062814/5681684f550346895dde4d3b/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

The Hypothesis/Claim
0The most dangerous sports are not “extreme sports” but South Africa’s two national sports, Rugby and Soccer.
![Page 26: Thinking with Technology](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062814/5681684f550346895dde4d3b/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
0Extreme Sports are usually well regulated and have stringent safety measures in place.
0Regular sports, however, are played by large numbers of players, often young players, often without supervision and safety measures.
0This often leads to injury and fatality.
![Page 27: Thinking with Technology](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062814/5681684f550346895dde4d3b/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Aspects of the Tool
0Learners rate the quality of the evidence
![Page 28: Thinking with Technology](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062814/5681684f550346895dde4d3b/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
0Learners decide if it supports the evidence or not, and how strong its support is
![Page 29: Thinking with Technology](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062814/5681684f550346895dde4d3b/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

Higher Order Thinking Skills
0Constructing an argument0Analysis – analysing evidence0Evaluation – of data and sources0Making decisions – using the ranking of the evidence0Synthesis – creating your own knowledge
![Page 32: Thinking with Technology](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062814/5681684f550346895dde4d3b/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Using this tool in the classroom
0Teacher creates a Claim (hypothesis) and learners find evidence to prove/disprove it
0Teacher provides evidence and learners create a claim for one side or other of the argument
0Learners are given a topic area and create the claim and find evidence
![Page 34: Thinking with Technology](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062814/5681684f550346895dde4d3b/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
