2nd call for model teaching materials for the definitive guide to teaching critical thinking—



The Critical Thinking Book

The Critical Thinking Book is not a textbook. It’s a resource for teachers. The aim of the book is to offer background theoretical information and teaching advice to new and prospective critical thinking course instructors—guidance based on the latest theories and experience in the classroom.

If you have some teaching materials that have really worked well for you, why not send them in for consideration or contact us to find out if they would fit?

·         model lesson plans

·         model in-class exercises

·         model homework assignments

·         test questions



Textbook authors are welcome to send material adapted from their books, and to make reference to its source.

We would like each model lesson plan, assignment or testing instrument to be accompanied by the following information:

  *   the critical thinking skills and/or attitudes it’s designed for and how they should be useful beyond the classroom
  *   the competencies that the material assumes students have at the start
  *   The criteria  for success for the lessons, exercises, tests: how students will know them and how students know how well they are attaining them

Contributors will be entitled to shares of royalties.
