This document discusses critical thinking skills for tutors. It defines critical thinking as using intelligence and knowledge to carefully explore situations and arrive at thoughtful conclusions based on evidence and reason. Tutors should model critical thinking and problem solving for students during sessions. They can get students to think critically by teaching them to ask relevant questions, examine ideas from different perspectives, and support conclusions with evidence. The document provides an example method ("GRASS") for analyzing problems and offers tips for making students independent learners after tutoring ends, such as providing step-by-step instructions for common problem types.
The document discusses the importance of critical thinking skills in the workplace and provides examples of companies that failed to make good decisions. It then outlines ways to develop critical thinking abilities, including through assessment and training focused on skills like separating facts from opinions and evaluating arguments. The assessment Watson-Glaser is presented as a tool to measure critical thinking and identify talent.

The document discusses critical thinking and its importance. It states that critical thinking is the foundation for success according to a HR director [Varde Investment Partners] and that it allows one to see the world with clarity, get a good job, and live better. It then discusses how one company, TalentLens, has expanded their assessment of critical thinking from just a score to developing critical thinking skills using their RED model of recognizing assumptions, evaluating arguments, and drawing conclusions.
Our ability to learn new ways to think is the power of human potential. We have to make choices about the types of thinking that we apply to a
variety of different challenges.
Critical Thinking is the act of examining a set of facts and analyzing and evaluating relevant information. We live in a knowledge based society, and
the more critically you think the better your knowledge will be. Critical Thinking provides you with the skills to analyze and evaluate information so
that you are able to obtain the greatest amount of knowledge from it. It provides the best chance of making the correct decision, and minimizes
damages if a mistake does occur. Critical Thinking will lead to being a more rational and disciplined thinker. It will reduce your prejudice and bias,
which will provide you a better understanding of your environment.
This workshop will provide you the skills to evaluate, identify, and distinguish between relevant and irrelevant information. It will lead you to be more
productive in your career, and provide a great skill in your everyday life.
Lastly, critical thinking skills will support your capacity to be innovative. Once you fully understand what it is, you can begin exploring what could be.
By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to answer the following questions:
1) What is critical thinking?
2) How can I use nonlinear thinking strategies?
3) What does it mean for me to apply logic to situations?
4) How do I know when, how, and why to think critically about a challenge?
5) What skills allow be to better evaluate facts and data?
6) How will thinking differently effect my decision outcomes?
7) How can I challenge my self to see alternate perspectives?
8) How can I increase my problem solving abilities?
This document discusses critical thinking skills and how leaders can facilitate critical thinking in the workplace. It defines critical thinking as assessing ideas, finding new solutions, and taking a lifelong learning approach. The document notes that leaders often lack skills for facilitating learning events and outlines tools like brainstorming, flow charting, and the DMAIC model that can help with problem solving. It concludes that critical thinking is a learnable skill and leaders should facilitate events using available tools to improve employee satisfaction, productivity, and competitive advantage.
Critical thinking is defined as the process of actively and skillfully analyzing and evaluating information gathered from various sources in order to guide beliefs and actions. It involves 6 steps: 1) gaining knowledge through identification and description, 2) comprehending by explaining and summarizing, 3) applying knowledge to solve problems, 4) analyzing by breaking down information into parts, 5) synthesizing analyzed parts to form new theories, and 6) evaluating through ranking and appraising.
This document summarizes key points from a presentation on creative thinking and problem solving.

This document outlines a framework for developing critical thinking skills. It defines critical thinking as "the intellectually disciplined process of actively and skillfully conceptualizing, applying, analyzing, synthesizing and/or evaluating information." The framework is based on the "Elements of Thought" from the Foundation for Critical Thinking, which identifies that all reasoning has a purpose, is done from a point of view, is based on assumptions and data/evidence. It provides guidance on applying these elements when analyzing an argument or article using a template to identify the main purpose, question, information, conclusions, concepts and assumptions. Students are instructed to practice this on a sample article.
Problem solving and_critical_thinking_eltecsJamie Hoang
This document discusses the importance of teaching critical thinking and problem solving skills in English language teaching. It outlines the key elements of critical thinking such as observation, facts, inferences, assumptions, opinions, arguments, and critical analysis. It also discusses Bloom's taxonomy of thinking skills. The document notes several benefits of critical thinking skills for students and challenges that teachers may face in teaching these skills. It provides examples of how to develop critical thinking through questioning, analogies, interaction, reflection and real-life problems. Finally, it outlines the steps to problem solving and discusses teachers' roles in developing these important skills in students.
According to American Philosophical Association critical thinking has been defined as, “The process of purposeful, self-regulatory judgment. The Process gives reasoned consideration to evidence, contexts, conceptualizations, methods and criteria.”
This chapter discusses decision making and problem solving. It outlines five sources of decision complexity for modern managers, three common decision traps, and the differences between programmed and non-programmed decisions. Group decision making is discussed along with tools for improving creativity and problem solving such as overcoming mental locks, using a four step creative process, and fishbone diagrams to identify causes. Knowledge management is presented as a way to improve decision quality through sharing tacit and explicit knowledge.
The document discusses various techniques for critical thinking and decision making, including:
1) The 6 Thinking Hats method which separates thinking into 6 categories (white, red, black, yellow, green, blue) to encourage full-spectrum thinking and better decision making.
2) The 5 Whys technique which is used to identify the root cause of problems by asking "why" 5 times to determine the relationship between different root causes.
3) Brainstorming which is a group creativity technique to gather a list of ideas spontaneously contributed by members to find a conclusion for a specific problem.
Youth in Critical thinking vs creative thinkingKendrick Ng
This is the presentation which I share during the UTP ASEAN Student Forum 2016. This topic is to promote and to install a well-balanced mode of thinking within the ASEAN community.
This document discusses critical thinking, including definitions, types of thinking, the components and benefits of critical thinking, and barriers to critical thinking. It defines critical thinking as the process of purposeful, self-regulatory judgment using evidence and reasoning. Some key points made include: critical thinking involves analyzing, evaluating, and making reasonable decisions; it benefits academic and workplace performance as well as daily life; barriers include uncritical thinking being common and critical thinking being difficult; and characteristics of a critical thinker are being open-minded, honest, and willing to welcome criticism.
Critical thinking is an ongoing, anticipatory process of evaluating information that seeks to determine reasonable conclusions. It considers all relevant details sequentially and remains open to reevaluation based on new information. Critical thinking aims to be bias-proof in its evaluation of ideas.
In contrast, problem-solving is a reactive process that only begins once a problem arises. It focuses on finding a "fix" without ongoing reassessment. Critical thinking can help prevent problems by ongoing reasonable evaluation of new details and ideas.
The role of a critical thinker is to carefully consider all pertinent facts and determine when conclusions can be drawn, while also communicating feedback in a way that acknowledges potential biases and presents questions in addition to answers. Strong mediation
This document introduces the growth and fixed mindset model. It explains that a growth mindset believes intelligence can grow through effort, while a fixed mindset believes intelligence is innate and fixed. The presentation recommends encouraging a growth mindset in others by praising effort rather than ability and believing abilities can be developed. It also cautions that mindsets exist on a continuum and can be domain specific. Research shows adopting a growth mindset can positively impact goal achievement.
The document discusses the concept of mindset and differentiates between a fixed mindset and a growth mindset. A fixed mindset believes personal qualities like intelligence are fixed traits, while a growth mindset sees them as qualities that can be developed through effort. Having a growth mindset can provide benefits like increased motivation, resilience when facing challenges, and a greater willingness to take risks and learn new skills.
This document summarizes the Creative Problem Solving (CPS) process developed in the 1950s by Alex Osborn and Dr. Sidney J. Parnes. The CPS process follows three stages (explore the challenge, generate ideas, prepare for action) and six steps to guide groups through divergent and convergent thinking. It was created as a more structured alternative to typical brainstorming approaches and encourages the generation and exploration of many options without judgement before converging on solutions.
The document discusses critical thinking and creative thinking. It defines critical thinking as involving asking questions, defining problems, examining evidence, analyzing biases, avoiding emotional reasoning, considering other interpretations, and tolerating ambiguity. Creative thinking means generating new ideas and processes. The two types of thinking are interrelated, with critical thinking helping to evaluate creative ideas in a rational way. The document provides tips for using critical thinking to spur more creative thinking, such as questioning experts and their qualifications, avoiding overgeneralizations, and considering unexpected outcomes as opportunities for new ideas.

How to live without the academic hunger games. Narelle Lemon
I’m not going to play the academic research collaboration hunger games: hunting, attacking, stealing, and back stabbing are not a part of my agenda!
The university is a game. It has rules, transparent and hidden, but it is a place essentially driven by competitiveness, much akin to the notion of hunger games. I refer to the competitiveness and reference to the hunger games metaphor where we are placed against each other – institutionally, within our own department or faculty, and indeed within some collaborations, and against one another. We are at times placed in positions where as higher degree research students and academics we are uncomfortable, isolated, experience personal and knowledge based attacks, stress, anxiety, and we are challenged as individuals from a perspective of self-care. How can we navigate the academic research collaboration hunger games?
Throughout this presentation I invite a rethinking of the narrative of competition to one of mindful choice as academics working in research collaborations within the current contemporary higher education context. A disruption to this is a repositioning of being, a mindful approach to who and how we collaborate. I invite an enactment of a self-awareness to our own approach to research collaboration, and consideration underpinned on how this impacts others' by engaging in rewarding interpersonal relationships. I connect with the higher degree research experience, being an academic collaborator, working with industry, co publishing, and utilising social media as examples of shifting practice.
I’m an advocate of being the change you want to see. If we mindfully approach our collaborations – including the collaborative process (relationship formation, development, and growth) and the outputs – then there is a space to disrupt the competitive nature, at least within our self, amongst each other, and hopefully within the institution. Mindful choice is key to this.
This slide deck covers a typical one day authentic leadership development day that we deliver at the Antwerp Management School.

The document outlines an Appreciative Inquiry (AI) model for building resilient work teams through teambuilding exercises. It discusses using AI to identify the strengths of team members and past successes by asking positive questions to establish goals and commitments. Examples provided illustrate how AI can be applied to topics like mentoring, conflict resolution, and developing a team philosophy.
Essential questions are open-ended questions that require students to think critically and develop original answers through research and evaluation. They are found at the highest levels of Bloom's Taxonomy and require students to evaluate, synthesize, and analyze information. Well-written essential questions begin with interrogatives like "which," "how," "what if," "should," and "why" and are thought-provoking without single correct answers. Examples of different types of essential questions are provided.

This document outlines the four main types of supply under Malaysia's Goods and Services Tax (GST): standard-rated supplies, zero-rated supplies, exempt supplies, and supplies not within GST. Standard-rated supplies are taxable goods and services subject to a 6% GST rate. Zero-rated supplies are goods and services charged at a 0% GST rate, including agricultural products and international services. Exempt supplies are goods and services exempted from GST, such as residential land and buildings, financial services, and private education. Supplies not within GST are transactions outside the tax, like non-business activities and overseas sales.
GST is a new tax in Malaysia that will impact all aspects of businesses, including human capital, finance, administration, sales, marketing, procurement, business efficiency, accountability, and information technology. Specifically, GST will affect employee education, cash flow, pricing, contracts, vendors, organization structure, registration, compliance, and IT systems. Businesses need to prepare for the changes and ensure they are ready to properly handle GST in all areas of their operations.
The document discusses different levels of wealth and how they are defined. The first level, financial stability, is achieved when you have sufficient liquid assets to cover 6 months of expenses and insurance. The second level, financial security, is reached when passive income covers most basic living expenses. The third level, financial freedom, occurs when investments provide enough income to sustain one's current lifestyle without working. The highest level, financial abundance, is having sufficient income to support one's desired lifestyle, even a luxurious one. Reaching each higher level takes more time and effort due to greater expenses and lifestyle.
GST and SST are different types of taxes implemented in Malaysia. SST is a single-stage tax paid by the manufacturer and again by the retailer, resulting in a total tax of 16% for the consumer. In contrast, GST is a multi-stage tax where each step in the supply chain pays 6%, resulting in a total tax of 12% for the consumer. Under GST, businesses can claim input tax credits for tax paid on purchases, whereas under SST businesses could only recover tax as a business cost. However, whether businesses will actually lower prices due to these input tax credits remains uncertain, as it depends on whether they choose to pass on the savings to consumers.
