Making CCT Visible Resource Submissions
The ECTL's "Making It Visible" webpage is designed to celebrate the thoughtful activities,
assignments, and other curricular elements UW instructors have created to help students
develop their critical and creative thinking skills. We hope the ideas presented here
will motivate others to make critical and creative thinking more visible in their
own courses.
Why? We want educators to make critical thinking visible because we know that students
are more likely to transfer, appreciate, and apply skills when they understand why
they are being asked to engage in certain kinds of tasks. We know that clear frameworks,
metacognition, and reflection can encourage students to be more aware of the importance
of critical thinking and better versed at engaging their critical thinking skills
in diverse contexts.
Do you have a great critical and/or creative thinking assignment, activity, or other
resource (e.g., syllabus discussion) to share?
