Critical Thinking Skills  Why Do High School  Students need them
[Critical thinking is a] desire to seek, patience to doubt, fondness to meditate, slowness to assert, readiness to consider, carefulness to dispose and set in order; and hatred for every kind of imposture. ~ Francis Bacon (1605)
“Appropriately focused metacognitive instruction increases practical intelligence, thus enabling students to gain greater insights into their learning strategies”   (Flavell, 1979; Lambert, 2000)

Foundation for Critical Thinking Socratic teaching- give students questions, not answers Changing one’s habits of thought is a long-range project                       (criticalthinking.org)
