    Hosszú leírás:

    This illuminating book provides an overview of best practices to introduce and develop critical thinking (CT) skills in the political science classroom. Featuring contributions from leading experts in a range of academic positions and subdisciplines, it presents perspectives from the various institutional settings that characterize contemporary higher education.



    Chapters are organized into four key parts, covering themes such as writing and activities to promote CT, simulations, countering cognitive bias and how to foster CT in different educational environments. Contributors discuss detailed pedagogies and examples, from the use of internet memes to combat cognitive bias to classroom simulations that model how EU institutions function. The book outlines how these strategies can enable the development of problem-solving skills and the ability to approach complex issues from diverse viewpoints.



    Teaching Critical Thinking in Political Science is an essential resource for instructors of political science, political theory and public policy. Its evidence-based, practical insights will be invaluable to classroom practitioners who are looking to innovate their curriculum and pedagogy while fostering transferrable critical thinking skills.
