Answer 2

have the students
apply their answer to a real life instance
evaluate a graph
compare and constrast data

create a graph and explain why they chose that type of graph.

my copy of bloom's in in my Wong/first days of school book-- so i am short on answers right now.

have the students discuss strategies, create examples, disprove strategies and theories, integrate as many higher order thinking skills into discussion and projects that you can.

give a geometry, probability, or alegebra project to your students.
create a rubric with low level and higher level thinking skills right in the goals and objectives for the project or math lab.
