Critical Thinking by Jonathan Haber... In this book, author Jonathan Haber explores the origins of the concept of critical thinking and its roots in disciplines such as philosophy, psychology, and the sciences. He presents the elements of critical thinking, including structured thinking, language skills, and background knowledge, in addition to the intellectual traits that a critical thinker should possess, such as intellectual humility, empathy, and open-mindedness. Haber discusses definitions of critical thinking and how the teaching and assessment of its skills have evolved over the centuries, while also offering some methods that contemporary educators can utilize. This makes the book a valuable guide for teachers, educational leaders, and policymakers on how to make teaching and learning critical thinking a pedagogical priority and a practical reality.
