Becoming a Critical Thinker Zusammenfassung

Becoming a Critical Thinker: For your university studies and beyond Sarah Birrell Ivory (Lecturer in Climate Change and Business Strategy, University of Edinburgh Business School)

Becoming a critical thinker is a straight-forward, reassuring, and complete guide to critical thinking - one that helps you to understand critical thinking and develop the skills needed to employ it. This book supports the reader to not only think critically, but to do so independently, as a student, professional, and global citizen. The book has a clear three-part structure: firstly, examining what critical thinking is; secondly, exploring the three overarching aims of critical thinking; and finally, focussing on how to develop the essential tools to support those aims. This text assumes no prior knowledge or understanding: it has been developed to gently guide the reader from school-level education to university-level thinking in a clear and engaging manner. This is the only critical thinking skills text to offer insights and advice from professionals and students, helping the reader learn from the experiences of others in a range of contexts. Each chapter also offers guided exercises, checklists, and further reading to encourage the reader to apply techniques learnt to real situations. It is also the only text to offer chapters dedicated to listening and speaking, which are often overlooked, but are vitally important skills. This is the ideal introduction to critical thinking for students across all disciplines. Digital formats and resources Becoming a Critical Thinker is available for students and institutions to purchase in a variety of formats, and is supported by online resources. - The e-book offers a mobile experience and convenient access along with functionality tools, navigation features, and links that offer extra learning support: www.oxfordtextbooks.co.uk/ebooks - The book's online resources include: For students: - Additional 'student say' features - Links to additional resources - Downloadable Tools Matrix - Downloadable checklists - Fully-customisable argument map - MCQs - Flashcard glossary For lecturers: - Tutorial suggestions - PowerPoint slides

Becoming a Critical Thinker Bewertungen

This book is a huge improvement on, and contribution to, the field and has given me hope that we might, with its help, be able to significantly improve students' knowledge in this area. * Dr Elaine Clark, Alliance Manchester Business School, University of Manchester *
The greatest gift I could have been given at the start of my undergraduate degree would have been this book. * Hal Meakin, Politics student at Brunel University *
The tone and style of the text is engaging, informative and encourages students to rise to the challenge of adapting to the rigours of studying at university. * Anne Kavanagh, Talent Development Centre, University of Essex *
This book is particularly excellent for anyone who does not yet realise the potential they hold, and it informs them of the skills that can be applied not just at their university, but in their social and working lives. * Osman Tatrokov, Senior Student Ambassador, University of Roehampton Law School *
An innovative, genuine, and thought-provoking text. * Dr Alicja Syska, Learning Development Advisor, University of Plymouth *
I think it would be a useful guide for every student, major, year of study! * Iris Patra, Business student at The American College of Greece *
For students coming from an educational background that emphasises consuming knowledge, this book is a long-awaited antidote that provides a very structured and guided approach to developing more complex learning styles. * Dr Simon Snowden, University of Liverpool *
