Description: This workshop is designed to help faculty integrate critical thinking into their courses. We will take a collaborative approach to the problem and engage in a highly interactive workshop. The primary objective of the workshop will be to define and illustrate critical thinking as an instructional objective from the various perspectives of the disciplines represented by the faculty in attendance. In addition, we will develop activities that are designed to both assess the level of critical thinking in your students, as well as promote critical thinking in a very deliberate, transparent process.
