This means that they:
 

  • Use technology and tools strategically in learning and communicating
     
  • Use argument and reasoning  to do research,  construct arguments, and critique the reasoning of others
     
  • Communicate and collaborate effectively with a variety of audiences
     
  • Solve problems, construct explanations and design solutions
