Pupils should be able to keep their bearings in a complex reality, where there is a vast flow of information and where the rate of change is rapid.
This is the reason that studying skills and methods of acquiring and using new knowledge is important.
It is also necessary that pupils develop their ability to critically examine facts and relationships, and appreciate the consequences of different alternatives.
