Introduction to Critical Thinking

Your principal has asked you to present to the faculty on your campus about the use of critical thinking skills and the Common Core standards.

Prepare a 5- to 7-slide presentation on the correlation of critical thinking skills, quality questioning, and Common Core standards.

Identify ways in which critical thinking skills and quality questioning can be incorporated into classroom expectations on your campus.

Use a graphic organizer, chart, diagram, infographic, and so forth, as the basis for a 5- to 10-minute presentation on how critical

thinking correlates with one or more of the following:

• Bloom’s Taxonomy or Webbs DoK
• Quality questioning
• Representation of different subject areas
• Content-specific suggestions for implementing
• Critical thinking and Common Core State standards or other academic standards

Provide detailed speaker notes in the notes section of your presentation.
