Creating Learning Activities that Target the Improvement of
Students' Critical Thinking Skills, within Disciplinary
Contexts
Critical thinking is the ability to use and manage
intelligence and skills appropriately for tasks or goals,
across multiple domains of knowledge (cognitive, social, and
affective domains).
This one-day workshop will allow participants the
opportunity to create critical thinking activities within the
context of their own discipline. The activities created will
all require the creation, communication, and transfer of
knowledge. Participants should each bring a learning activity
(or even an idea for a learning activity) to work on during
the institute.
