Critical Thinking Across the Curriculum Workshop
The Critical Thinking Across the Curriculum workshop provides teachers with a comprehensive approach to fostering critical thinking skills at all grade levels, with particular attention to addressing online misinformation and online hate through teaching critical thinking. The workshop looks at exactly what critical thinking is and why we need to teach it; explores how we can teach students how to think critically, including looking at different ways of approaching it for different parts of the curriculum; and finally, looks at how we can get students – and ourselves – to switch to using better shortcuts to critical thinking.
