Extractions: (SIRS) Research You Can Use Close-Up #11 Kathleen Cotton Perhaps most importantly in today's information age, thinking skills are viewed as crucial for educated persons to cope with a rapidly changing world. Many educators believe that specific knowledge will not be as important to tomorrow's workers and citizens as the ability to learn and make sense of new information. D. Gough, 1991 INTRODUCTION Throughout history, philosophers, politicians, educators and many others have been concerned with the art and science of astute thinking. Some identify the spirit of inquiry and dialogue that characterized the golden age of ancient Greece as the beginning of this interest. Others point to the Age of Enlightenment, with its emphasis on rationality and progress (Presseisen 1986, p. 6). In the twentieth century, the ability to engage in careful, reflective thought has been viewed in various ways: as a fundamental characteristic of an educated person, as a requirement for responsible citizenship in a democratic society, and, more recently, as an employability skill for an increasingly wide range of jobs. Deborah Gough's words quoted at the beginning of this report typify the current viewpoint in education about the importance of teaching today's students to think critically and creatively. Virtually all writers on this subject discuss thinking skills in connection with the two related phenomena of modern technology and fast-paced change. Robinson, for example, states in her 1987 practicum report:

Extractions: Dr. Valerie Balester Teaching Critical Thinking Skills Critical thinking has been very much discussed in education, and there are many definitions of it available. (See, for example, the Critical Thinking Across the Curriculum Project at Longview Community College.) Critical thinking is, simply put, careful, skeptical, and conscious thinking; it is the sort of thinking, guided by logic and method, that academics value. Critical thinking is also the ability to view any object of study from multiple perspectives, to recognize the cultural, ideological, and cognitive frames (or schemata) we bring to understanding. While the value of critical thinking to scholarship is hardly new, only recently have we understood that critical thinking is in itself a habit and a skill, something which, like the writing process , many of our students may have to learn and practice. A particularly useful approach to critical thinking is offered by James Lett, " A Field Guide to Critical Thinking ." Lett points out that claims, to be accepted, must be

Extractions: These pieces originally appeared as a weekly column entitled "Lessons" in The New York Times between 1999 and 2003. [ THIS ARTICLE FIRST APPEARED IN THE NEW YORK TIMES ON SEPTEMBER 19, 2001 ] Teach more than where to put H in Afghanistan By Richard Rothstein School reformers often call for critical thinking, but this means little if students think critically only when there are no consequences. Now, as the nation debates how to respond to last week's terror, the consequences are big enough to matter. Teachers need answers to questions from students about personal safety, about what motivates others to attack us, about how we should relate to fellow citizens who are Muslim or Arab and about whether civil liberties should be curtailed in a time of crisis. If unasked, these questions should be provoked. Few teachers are prepared to do this. On Sunday, I asked high school students in Winter Haven, a town in central Florida, to describe how teachers had handled the terrorist attacks. This was no representative sample of youth. All were in honors classes, members of a church youth group, with well-educated middle-class parents. If adolescents anywhere could begin to think critically, these should.
Writing As Tool For Critical Thinking

Extractions: Professor Vernellia Randall, Director Carol McCrehan Parker excerpted Wrom: UWLSZLKBRNVWWCUFPEGAUTFJMVRESK Throughout the Curriculum: Why Law Schools Need it and How to Achieve it, 76 Neb. L. Rev. 561-603, 568- 602 (1997). Sometimes lawyers and law teachers who say that law students don't write very well refer to sloppy aspects of documents, such as poor citation form or imprecise word choices. More often, however, when asked what is wrong with the writing, they say such things as, "either it's all garbled and I can't tell what they're talking about, or else it stays at such an abstract level that they're not talking about anything at all." These sorts of writing problems suggest that the novice legal writers have not yet sufficiently refined their analyses to clearly communicate their ideas. In the first year of law school, traditional legal writing classes support substantive course work by focusing students' attention on the process of legal reasoning and the structure of argument. Even legal writing courses that do not purport to teach legal analysis fulfill this function to some degree because presentation and content are often inseparable in practice, and analytic and communicative skills develop together.
Institute Of Development Studies Teaching And Training
Abilities of critical thinking, analysis and reflective practice, and personal development of values and attitudes useful in pursing participatory approaches.
http://www.ids.ac.uk/ids/teach/mapart.html

Extractions: 15 Months (full time, including part time field-based learning) Concepts and methods of 'participation' are increasingly used throughout the world for engaging citizens, communities, stakeholders and beneficiaries in decision-making. Participatory approaches are now widely used in processes of policy-making, development planning, governance and community empowerment in a wide variety of contexts. At the same time, there are growing concerns about the quality of practice, and the 'mainstreaming' of participation in ways that are poorly grounded in theory, politics or past practice. Few opportunities exist at the postgraduate level for critical reflection, in-depth, experiential learning and innovation in diverse approaches for engaging people in decision-making and active citizenship. The MA in Participation, Development and Social Change is designed for experienced practitioners who have a need to reflect upon and deepen their knowledge, innovation and practice. Taking participation as a fundamental philosophy underpinning policy and practice, students will be provided with structured opportunities for study, dialogue, application and critical reflection.

Much is written about "the how" of critical thinking, but "the why" is conspicuously absent from the literature. This paper attempts to fill this gap by providing reasons for why critical thinking should be taught in schools. It shows the indispensable value of teaching critical thinking from the viewpoint of four related educational paradigms. Why critical thinking?
