Blurred Lines Part 2: Critical Thinking versus Teaching to the Test
Blurred Lines Part Two: Teaching Critical Thinking v To the Test
In this week's episode, we dive into this meaty topic. Are our children being taught to excel on a test without the necessary tools of Critical Thinking? What are the differences? What are the consequences? While rote learning may be beneficial as a foundation, why are students being drilled on topics without more consequential deeper learning or thinking skills?
Questions of the week:
Are Parents Becoming Too Permissive?
What Needs to Happen To Bring Back Natural Consequences in Schools?
Resources for Critical Thinking:
EdX: Courses in Critical Thinking Skills to Incorporate into Teaching
Coursera: Courses in Critical Thinking for both Students and Teachers
Khan Academy: Provides Materials on Critical Thinking and Problem-Solving Skills
