Challenging the importance of context.
The critical thinking skill requires developing grasp of relationships –
the relationship
between an object and its surroundings or connecting objects or ideas or claims etc. Possible
practice:
In the process of implementing different activities ask pupils to discuss how they might
apply phrase, objects, concept, ideas, judgments to different contexts, noticing variations.
Imaging and exploring alternatives
The ability to imagine alternatives is often associated with creative thinking.
Pupils need
understand that there are not the only possible ways of thinking or doing something. Possible
practice:
One of the possible ways of exploring alternatives is changing “point of view”.
Pupils can
be asked to write a dialog between two different character (for example: first they write
dialog from the women’s point of view, second they write
the same dialog from the
man’s point of view.
Another example of exploring alternatives can be seen in the Math or science lesson
where pupils are asked to find different ways of solving the same problem.
