Year: 2003

Type: article

Abstract: This study investigated the cognitions of a teacher and four adolescent students during their involvement in critical thinking (C T) a ctivities. Content an alysis yielded a multi-dimensio nal construct of teacher, student, a nd teacher/student thou ght patterns. The teacher created a su pportive learn ing environment, provided activities that maximized involvement and opportunities for success, and facilitated the CT process. The students initially approached the CT tasks from a nonstrategic perspective but gradually adopted more thoughtful approaches to the tasks. In doing so, the students provided evidence of both CT skills and CT dispositions; attributes not usually associated with the atrisk adolescent learner.
