Designed to provide a complete guide for teachers of thinking skills, reasoning and critical thinking to 14-19 age groups, everything you could need to be a thinking teacher is packed into The Thinking Teacher's Toolkit, including:
• an introduction to what thinking skills are, why you are equipped to teach them and how you can apply your previous experience
• clear approaches to preparing to teach, whether you are a coordinator seeking guidance on setting up a thinking skills course from scratch, a thinking teacher putting together thought-provoking lesson plans or a subject teacher looking for ideas on integrating critical thinking skills across the curriculum; and
• advice on how to handle assessment, including information on a variety of qualifications available internationally.
In addition, there is a companion website containing tools for developing your professional expertise, answers to frequently asked questions, handouts for pupils and PowerPoint's to use in the sample lessons. This is the ultimate toolkit for any teacher wanting to improve their students reasoning and problem-solving skills.
