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.
