Hi Truitt,
I concur! Our students need to use critical thinking as much as possible. Good exercises to help utilize critical thinking are scenarios, case studies, role playing, mock learning, etc.

I agree that critical thinking skills are needed more today than ever before. Todays youth and a lot of adults are perfectly happy sitting and playing screen games then they are doing any physical activities. Using critical thinking skills to complete a hands on project has become a thing of the past. For example, most people of an older generation grew up riding and maintaining bicycles. Now today our youth either play with skateboards or stay indoors to play on a computer. Thus they have never learned a skill set of figuring something out for themselves or as a group accomplished a task.
Hi GERMAN,
I agree! I like to role play, do case studies, scenarios, simulations, etc. to generate critical thinking from my students.
