Helping Your Pupils to Think for Themselves

By Jeni Wilson

Possibly the biggest challenge teachers face in the classroom is getting their pupils to think for themselves. When children learn to think independently, they are able to take control of their own learning. What's more, they become good at dealing with the many problems that life will inevitably throw their way - not only good at solving these problems, but at choosing the kind of thinking strategies that will help solve them.''Helping Your Pupils to Think for Themselves'' defines the various types of thinking (critical, creative, reflective) and discusses in detail the most crucial type of thinking for student progress - metacognition, which involves self-assessment, active decision making and personal goal setting.
