Rigney, Daniel Yiorgios; Zhao, Yong – Prospects, 2022
Outcomes in education are complex and numerous.

Crossland, John – Primary Science, 2015
Thinking and other non-cognitive skills are becoming more important because the information explosion means less reliance on memorising facts and more on the ability to understand, analyse, apply, evaluate and create. In addition, many learners entering schools today will work in job categories not yet imagined; therefore a teaching focus on fact…
