Prosser Theorem 3

I do agree with Prosser’s Theorem 3—it is essential that students be taught critical thinking skills and problem solving skills. It is also important that students be taught the hands-on skills needed to perform a particular job. In my area of public safety, students are taught the basics, such as the laws and procedures that they are to follow. However, they need to be able to think critically and work quickly to solve problems when they are in a law enforcement setting. The earlier a student can begin to learn these types of skills, the more successful they will ultimately be on the job. Thus, CTE programs are critical in our high schools to begin exposing students to the workplace and its demands prior to graduation.
