| مستخلص: | Research confirms that critical thinking plays a fundamental role in decision making and problem solving, skills that are essential to function as successful adults in a complex world. Consequently, it has been a focus of educational research for decades. Faculty meetings and teacher training sessions repeatedly run sessions on ways that teachers can adapt their methodology to foster higher-level thinking. This article discusses the definition of critical thinking and the pivotal role that questioning can have in developing those skills. Out of the hundreds of questions teachers ask daily, few demand higher-level thinking. In fact, most ask for basic information or check for current learning rather than causing students to infer, analyze, evaluate, or demonstrate creativity. Further, the article includes a sampling of teaching techniques adapted from cooperative learning and other disciplines that have the potential to transform the world language classroom into a vibrant, learner-active space where students use critical thinking to solve problems. |
