Subject: Re: HOTS in action
The point is not that it is preferable to teach any particular piece using
HOTS. The point is that research has apparently proven the value of teaching
HOTS explicitly and making students aware of the fact that they are using
them. It doesn't necessarily have to be with literature, but it is one way,
and was a way to get literature into the bagrut. It doesn't ruin the
literature, and I must say, I was stunned at the very positive feedback
about dealing with the HOTS I got from my students in their very last
summative reflection tasks.

literature - say Frost's Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening, using HOTS,
and explaining how this might differ from a traditional literary analysis of
the piece. An explanation of why one should use HOTS in order to do this
would also be very welcome.

silence the naysayers or....not.
