"We oppose the teach­ing of High­er Order Think­ing Skills (HOTS) (val­ues clar­i­fi­ca­tion), crit­i­cal think­ing skills and sim­i­lar pro­grams that are sim­ply a rela­bel­ing of Outcome-Based Edu­ca­tion (OBE) (mas­tery learn­ing) which focus on behav­ior mod­i­fi­ca­tion and have the pur­pose of chal­leng­ing the stu­dent's fixed beliefs and under­min­ing parental author­i­ty." I am speechless. - Victor Ganata
