[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Private schools don’t teach it either . All bells and whistles [/quote] My kid is currently taking a logic class where they go through things like how an argument is constructed and what the fallacies are. It's been known how to properly teach critical thinking since the Middle Ages: 1) since you can't reason about something you don't understand, stuff young brains with facts. Young brains are literally proven by neuroscience to be better at taking in knowledge than older ones anyway. 2) once you have a good ground of knowledge and your brain is developing, learn how to reason (this would happen late elementary/early middle depending on brain development per kid) 3) once you know how to reason, learn how to present your reasoning eloquently in both writing and speech[/quote] This is OP - this the sort of thing I am interested in. Where is this class please?[/quote]
