Abstract
The chapter draws on some key spiritual values from the wisdom of the past that have been passed on from generation to generation across religious and secular lines. Some of these guiding values and principles include the search for truth, nurturing respect, and becoming a good person, to name a few. The chapter combines the accepted values with a more progressive view of education that calls to surrender the goal of shaping or molding the pupil's mind, exchange it for liberating the mind, and strengthening its critical powers. Creative Problem Solving (CPS) and Differentiated Instruction, can answer the call for strengthening critical and creative thinking and can be used by teachers at any grade level, in any subject and at any time to better support spiritual and cognitive needs of all learners.
