In this episode we talk with Dr Martha Burns, director of neuroscience education at Scientific Learning corporation about the concept of critical thinking.

Do you ever think much about thinking? In this discussion we focus on the topic from the perspective of questions raised by two teachers.

Ever wonder why someone can't quite see things from your perspective, or why students find it hard to develop literary technique? Or how about artistic endeavours. Why is critical thinking such an important aspect to the artistic process?

As we'll hear, there's more to thinking than just saying, "I'll think about it".
