Description

Critical Thinking for Better Learning shifts the focus from teaching to learning and from presenting information to creating challenges that teach students how to think in your discipline. The shift derives from three new insights from cognitive science: that we think by analogy, that we learn best when we process clear, focused sources and develop our own theories about our findings, and that there are key threshold concepts that define the discipline and make it attractive to young practitioners. This book explains each of these insights in direct, clear language, with examples of how to implement them in your own classroom.

Author Biography:

Carole L. Hamilton is a retired English teacher and debate coach who has researched teaching and learning for twenty years. Her focus has been in analogy-making, inductive lessons, and threshold concepts.
