Bogus "Critical Thinking" Teaching Strategies Rick Garlikov There are numerous packaged materials, apart from challenging and informative books, for supposedly teaching "critical thinking" and I am suspicious of most of them because, normally, teaching critical thinking involves thinking along with the students in some way that analyzes and responds reasonably, and when necessary, challengingly, to what they say. And though it is possible to anticipate what students might say, and have some sort of program that responds appropriately when they select certain answers, it is highly unlikely such programs are available, as I am writing this in 2002, that serve well enough to do that properly. Similarly, there are various "teaching strategies" available that are supposed to teach "critical thinking." I want to discuss here three of the sorts of strategies I have seen in middle schools which are often considered to be examples of teaching critical thinking, but which I believe have nothing to do with it. I have numerous articles at my web site , about teaching for understanding and about fostering better thinking, and I will not repeat that material here. I only want to give some examples of strategies which many teachers and schools mistakenly believe teach critical thinking.

Additional Ideas for Teaching Critical Thinking Through Writing Developing Critical Thinking Through Writing: A Brief Explanation When developing the courses that we teach, most of us are concerned with designing a course that will sharpen our students' thinking skills. In part, we accomplish this aim by presenting our students with interesting reading material, lectures, and class discussions. As students read more and hear more, we reason, they will gain knowledge and discover new contexts for their ideas. They will also (we hope) come to think more critically. However, reading assignments and lectures by themselves do not insure that our students will improve their critical thinking skills. Many students read and listen passively, simply absorbing information. They do not reliably challenge the thinking of the writers they are reading - or of the professors they are listening to. Nor do they reliably use the material they read to challenge their own ideas. However, when students write, they cannot remain passive players in the learning game. Even the simplest writing task, such as a summary of an article, requires that students make important critical choices: What information is most important to this argument? What might be left out? More complex writing assignments ask students to make more difficult choices about a topic - choices that eventually bring them to the questions: "What is it that I think about this subject? How did I arrive at what I think? What are my assumptions, and are they valid? How can I work with facts, observations, inferences, and so on, in order to convince others of what I think?"

Journal of Hokusei Gakuen Women's Junior College, 1999 (36): 145-149 Some questions on teaching critical thinking, social studies and global studies in Japan Robert E. Gettings Abstract: Critical thinking and global studies have become catch phrases related to teaching EFL content-based social studies in Japan. There has also been criticism of critical thinking teaching methods. This paper discusses some of the problems and raises some questions related to teaching critical thinking. Key words: critical thinking; critical pedagogy; global issues; EFL; content-based Worldwide trends in social studies and EFL content-based education have led to more of an emphasis being put on global issues and critical thinking in Japan. Recent social trends - such as the changes made by the Japanese Ministry of Education in the secondary curriculum with its focus on "internationalization", the development of "self-expression" (Yoshida, 1996) or the move towards an "information society" seem to indicate that there is a practical base for this emphasis in EFL teaching in Japan. All three require the analysis, synthesis and evaluation of ideas that is at the heart of critical thinking. The traditional pedagogy of the American university and the critical thinking training associated with traditional academic discourse or the analytic essay have come under attack from its own members. hooks (1994) asserts that it functions to marginalize minorities and women. Feminists have critiqued its exclusive and reductive nature.

Teaching Case Briefing (How Law School Students Teach Themselves to Think) AAfPE Kansas City, October 16-18, 1997 Ransford Pyle, Legal Studies College of Health and Public Affairs University of Central Florida Page Summary* The key to teaching law is teaching critical thinking. The key to teaching law online is providing an explicit system to learn critical thinking. At present, asynchronous learning may be the ONLY path to critical thinking for most undergraduates. *Page Summaries are provided on each web page to help you grasp that page's information at a glance. At present, asynchronous learning may be the ONLY path to critical thinking for most undergraduates. Perhaps This should be qualified as academic critical thinking. I believe that much of academic online teaching is done backwards. Instead of borrowing from classroom teaching, online education should be revolutionizing it. Let me start out with the radical premise that my undergraduate students at the University of Central Florida find critical thinking and classroom mental processes incompatible. They are in fact dismayed, if not distraught, when asked to think in the classroom. this is not because our students are stupid; we have the second-best GPA and SAT scores in the State University System. It is simply that our students have learned to associate a very low level of mental process with college learning.
