Confidence in Critical Thinking bridges the gap between theory and application for both new and established educators who wish to recognise their own critical-thinking skills, develop them and, in turn, support the development of their learners.

By harnessing findings from research on design, engagement, goal setting, coaching, performance and the influence of language, this book:

  • Facilitates educators in moving from thinking about these skills as theoretical concepts to practical application
  • Supports educators in their own personal development
  • Provides practical exercises and ideas for learner skills development
  • Encourages reflection from the educator on their own development.

A must-read for those wishing to examine the assumption that critical-thinking development happens to all learners to an equal degree as a natural part of the education process. Confidence in Critical Thinking is for both learners wishing to understand and develop critical-thinking skills and educators wanting to develop their learners’, and their own, critical skills.

Dr Arlene Egan is a Lecturer, Researcher and Practitioner in Learning, Teaching, Leadership and Psychology.
