math hoaxes
whoa... 20 min in he asks for questions..
free intel tools to promote critical thinking
How can educators best show their students how to employ critical thinking skills and teamwork to come up with the best solutions to problems?
Angelamaiers: Great question! Model Model Model!
rhiengold's answer - collaborative inquiry.. about whether something is credible
tomfullerton: A change in pedagogical approach brings us closer to implementing critical thinking (imho)
critical thinking consortium
Angelamaiers: Critical thinking is invisible- we come to the conclusions and the answers, but rarely do we reveal how we got there out loud and in front of students!
stay out of school... critical thinking what is it anyway
kids require skepticism on a daily basis
resources from angela
critical thinking is not linear... any level can access it... has to be habitual
via drexler http://www.teachingchildrenphilosophy.org/wiki/Main_Page
