What is the life skills training context? What is its purpose?
Curriculum guidelines explain what students are to learn by grade level and subject. Teachers select those Who-Am-I? discussion questions and collaborative activities that make learning the school's subjects relevant, interesting, and useful for their students. The Who-Am-I? life-skills training context is a second decision-support layer helping teachers make curriculum interesting for students.

Example: If empathy or crticial thinking skills are weak in your class, consider selecting questions and activities supporting such life-skills training. You may reinforce by telling students the reasons for your selection, the benefits of the selection for them as individuals, and by how you phrase your words when addressing or challenging them.
