It occurred to me that with the election already providing so much material to discuss and analyze, that I’ve not had the chance to revisit that notion of critical thinking skills “building blocks” since first publishing something on the subject several weeks ago.
It may just be that we’ll have to get back to these critical thinking basics sometime after the election is over (assuming the blog continues after the podcast finishes up post Election Day).
But in the meantime, I found a terrific image document that I think nicely summarizes many key critical thinking skills we should be introducing to students well before they are ready to start absorbing some of the more advanced subjects we’ve been discussing over the last few weeks.
