Recognition of the Value of Inclusive Problem-Solving (44-GE)

Students show 44-GE when they articulate the importance of consulting with and involving different stakeholders in solving shared problems. They may suggest that different stakeholders or the community at large should be involved in developing solutions. Students might demonstrate this attitude when they are planning for a problem-solving project, particularly when they are considering how to draw on the resources and knowledge of others who are impacted by the problem.
