Critical Thinking (eBook, PDF)

An Introduction To The Didactics Of Thinking Training

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Judgment and critical faculties are central concerns in many Western educational programs. However, promoting critical thinking requires specifically developed and didactically coherent concepts. This book therefore attempts to provide a philosophically and empirically sound as well as applicationoriented introduction to the concept and didactics of critical thinking. The realm of higher education is marked by a distinct emphasis on critically questioning established knowledge and practices, leading to the generation of new insights. In light of this crucial task, this book presents a comprehensive exploration of the theoretical foundations of critical thinking, coupled with practical strategies for its effective promotion. Designed to be accessible across various subjects, the introductory volume offers a low-threshold framework that can be adapted across subjects.
