Ideas for teaching critical thinking to college ... - Education Reference

Question by Alaska: Ideas for teaching critical thinking to college students?
I will be teaching a paramedic program at a local college in the Fall. Critical thinking skills are critical for paramedics. I would like some good ideas to encourage and strengthen critical thinking in my students. I?d love any ideas you have to share.

Best answer:

Answer by Jim W
Hello Kathy. I conduct critical thinking workshops and focus on both left and right sides of our brain to introduce both rational and emotional thinking. In brief, for paramedics I would think managing the emotional (Limbic brain) would be of special importance. Therefore, I would spend a good deal of time on explaining the difference between rational and emotional thinking, recognizing when the emotional brain has ?taken over? ? for the paramedics, the patient and those around the scene, and how to develop fair-mineded thinking.

I hope this helps you!
