NSSI Engaging Activities for Critical Thinking

Infuse student success into any program with our “Engaging Activities for…” Series.  Written and compiled by National Student Success Institute (NSSI®) co-founders Amy Baldwin, Steve Piscitelli, and Robert Sherfield, the material is sure to connect, support, and empower educators in the Two-Year, Technical, and Career Colleges.  These booklets contain strategies, procedural information, and activities that you can use with your students immediately.   

“My students do not know how to think critically.”  This common lament can be heard from teachers on campuses around the nation.  Many students come to college having little experience with higher-level thinking skills.  They are used to repeating or spitting back information.  But when students are asked to apply or evaluate information teachers are often met with blank stares. 

 

Amy, Steve, and Robb have developed this practical compilation, Engaging Activities for Critical Thinking, as an indispensable, hands-on resource for educators to address the topic of critical thinking.  This booklet will empower teachers, professional development coordinators, coaches, and administrators with tools to actively engage in their classes.  They are confident you will find these activities as useful as they have with their students.
