What are the ESSENTIAL SKILLS?   Tony Wagner calls them the "Seven Survival Skills" 
LINK

1) CRITICAL THINKING AND PROBLEM SOLVING 

2) COLLABORATION ACROSS NETWORKS AND LEADING BY INFLUENCE

3) AGILITY AND ADAPTABILITY 

4) INITIATIVE AND ENTREPRENEURSHIP

5) EFFECTIVE ORAL AND WRITTEN COMMUNICATION
6) ACCESSING AND ANALYZING INFORMATION
7) CURIOSITY AND IMAGINATION
Dennis Yuzenas, a teacher in Palm Beach County, Florida, added  "Etiquette and Courtesy"
Will Sutherland, head of a "leadership school" in France, adds "Integrity" to the list.

Isn't "being honest" a character trait?  No, it's a choice.  "He has integrity" is perhaps mispoken.  "He chooses to be honest and he chooses to tell you the truth."  

What are the specific procedure that we teachrs can use in our classrooms to encourage the development of essential skills?
