Описание: Critical thinking requires a deep understanding of the topic at hand and the ability to look at content from diverse, and often unfamiliar, perspectives. Critical thinkers engage with material in innovative and creative ways to analyze, synthesize and assess it in order to reach their own informed conclusions. Critical Thinking: From Theory to Classroom Practice invites readers to revisit their pedagogy to promote this type of inquiry. Scholars and practitioners from several content areas introduce several examples of instructional strategies, classroom practices, and projects at multiple grade levels. Their experiences come together to highlight practical ways to foster students' critical thinking skills and encourage them to engage in learning in new ways.
Описание: Have you ever thought about how your life would improve if you learned to use your mind better? Do you feel that your present thinking processes are not as strong as they could be?
Feeble thinking will certainly lead you to difficulties, pains, frustrations, and wasted time and effort. You are the only person who is capable of working to change and improve those thinking processes.
Thinkers who begin to question and reflect upon their thinking become aware that poor thinking patterns can have huge negative impacts on one's life.
If you don't think critically and have mental fog, then it will be hard to make a decision. When we struggle to make decisions, we struggle to problem solve as well. Decision making isn't an easy process. This is why we often have others decide for us
In this book, you will learn:
- Powerful techniques that critical thinkers use to improve their way of thinking and make smart decisions in any situation.
- Think about the way you think. "I know how to think " Well, yes. That doesn't mean a person thinks to the best of their ability.
- How to overcome cognitive biases in your own life through tools and examples.
- The step-by-step process of developing new and useful ideas, and alternative possibilities - creativity is necessary to solve problems.
- How to find, remove and redirect negative thought patterns to positive thoughts - before they result in the development of detrimental behaviors.
... And much more
Whatever field or industry you may be working in, whatever goals or aspirations you might have, whatever obstacles or difficulties you might be facing, you will always be at an advantage if you know how to employ critical thinking.
Remember, though, that critical thinking is a life-long practice. Learn the essentials of critical thinking and practice them daily. Get the book now and enjoy the journey.

Описание:
Progressive Education, derived mainly from Anglo-American culture, has been the primary frame of reference for student-centered classroom change in developing countries for over 50 years. Yet in many developing countries, strong evidence shows that progressivism has not replaced teacher-centered formalistic classroom practice. Classroom Change in Developing Countries: From Progressive Cage to Formalistic Frame presents a robust case for why formalism should be the primary frame of reference for upgrading classroom teaching in developing countries. Theoretically rich yet grounded in practice, the book draws on case studies from Africa, China and Papua New Guinea to show how culturally intuitive formalistic teaching styles can induce positive classroom change.
Synthesising research and evaluation literature on classroom change in developing countries, Guthrie examines some of the methodological flaws in the literature. The book considers the progressive cage, and looks at Confucian influences on teaching in China, progressive reform failures in both Sub-Saharan Africa and Papua New Guinea, as well as offering a critical take on some failings in comparative education. It examines the formalistic frame, addresses methodological issues in culturally grounded research and offers a model of teaching styles for basic classroom research. The book concludes by returning the focus back to teachers and considers the so-called teacher resistance to change.
The book will be an essential purchase for academics and research students engaged in the fields of classroom teaching, teacher education and curriculum and will also be of interest to academics, aid officials, and decision-makers in developing countries.
