A Critical Thinking Approach to Teaching and Learning

All subjects have a logic to them. Each is a system of meanings that enables us to reason effectively. Yet, most students try to learn not by reason, but by rote memorization. They blindly memorize someone else’s answers.

Even when they do well on tests, it isn’t because they truly understand. True understanding requires disciplined reasoning.

The How to Teach Series offers a penetrating, in-depth look at ways to cultivate intellectually powerful minds. This series of nine onehour videos, featuring Dr. Richard Paul, focuses on how to break out of the didactic mode, taking viewers on a journey into a new paradigm for instruction that explicitly fosters reasoned learning; learning that accesses the inner logic of all substantive inquiry.

Whatever your subject, the How to Teach Series is an essential guide to help you put reason, accountability, and power back into teaching and learning.
