The ability to think critically is the foundation of learning in all areas of the curriculum -- and life. Norman Unrau sets out practical strategies that can help guide adolescents to think reflectively by examining claims and developing arguments. With clarity and enthusiasm he demonstrates how thoughtful teachers in all disciplines can use listening, talking, questioning, reading and writing to encourage their students to become thoughtful learners with minds open to examining issues from a wide variety of perspectives, and well equipped to make decisions, both inside and outside the classroom, that are guided by a search for reason.
