Teaching as a Subversive Activity - Postman & Weingartner - Promote knowledge and critical thinking

Teaching as a Subversive Activity - Postman & Weingartner - Promote knowledge and critical thinking | Create, Innovate & Evaluate in Higher Education | Scoop.it

Teaching as a Subversive Activity constitutes a detailed and witty
prescription for developing in the classroom the art and sciences of asking the vital questions. It is written by two men, 'simple romantics' (as they call themselves) who believe in the improvability of the human condition through education.
'In a short review it is impossible to do justice to the wealth of thought on the education of the past, the present and the future contained in this book'
Colin Bulman. Teacher

How to Develop 5 Critical Thinking Types - Forbes | Create, Innovate & Evaluate in Higher Education | Scoop.it

- Critical thinking is the mental process of objectively analyzing a situation by gathering information from all possible sources, and then evaluating both the tangible and intangible aspects, as well as the implications of any course of action.

 
- Implementation thinking is the ability to organize ideas and plans in a way that they will be effectively carried out.


- Conceptual thinking consists of the ability to find connections or patterns between abstract ideas and then piece them together to form a complete picture.


- Innovative thinking involves generating new ideas or new ways of approaching things to create possibilities and opportunities. 


- Intuitive thinking is the ability to take what you may sense or perceive to be true and, without knowledge or evidence, appropriately factor it in to the final decision.
