ENGAGED CITIZENING<br />
TOOLS, SKILLS & ACTIONS<br />
1. Unconscious Incompetence:<br />
the learner isn’t aware that a skill or knowledge gap even exists.<br />
2. Conscious Incompetence:<br />
the learner is aware that a skill or knowledge gap, and sees and<br />
understands the importance of acquiring a new skill.<br />
3. Conscious Competence:<br />
the learner knows how to use the skill or perform the task, and that doing<br />
so requires practice, conscious thought, and work.<br />
4. Unconscious Competence:<br />
the individual has enough experience with the skill that he or she can<br />
perform it so easily they do it unconsciously.<br />
By the time all of your student learners have presented their project process<br />
and their call to action, learners will have rapidly moved from<br />
unconscious competence to conscious competence.<br />
Citizening Projects 3 and 4 are sequenced in ways that honor the four stages<br />
that each learner progresses through en route to competence.
