Teaching for Thinking - Psychology in the Classroom Series

What constitutes "good thinking"? How do analytical, practical, and creative thinkers differ? Which teaching strategies promote thinking to learn as well as learning to think? Can asking the right kinds of questions enhance student thinking? In what ways do tests squelch creative and insightful problem solving? Why do some good thinkers fail?

How can teachers prepare for the challenges of teaching for thinking? The authors consider these issues and others as they explore the thinking classroom. Richly illustrated with lively classroom vignettes and inventive teaching activities, this volume is undergirded with an empirically validated and classroom-tested psychological theory that lays out the three ways of thinking and the cognitive processes that underlie them.

This is the seventh book in the Division 15 series "Psychology in the Classroom," which is aimed at elementary, middle, and high school teachers. The goal of this series is to encourage teachers to base their daily classroom practices on sound principles derived form the latest educational psychology research. The series thus bridges the gap between theory and practice. Each book is written in an accessible, straightforward style and contains a wide range of user-friendly features, such as real-life case illustrations, sample classroom activities, self-study questions, and suggested readings.

Listening A Framework for Teaching Across Differences by Katherine Schultz

Most teachers will probably agree that listening is very important for students’ academic success. Schultz’s approach, however, is not specifically focused on improving students’ listening abilities, but rather on helping teachers locate listening at the center of their teaching.

In Chapter 1, Locating Listening at the Center of Teaching, Schultz explains her rationale for focusing on a pedagogy of listening. “Rather than teaching prospective and experienced teachers how to follow prescriptions for blueprints” says Schultz, “I suggest that teachers learn how to attend to and to respond with deep understanding to the students they teach” (p. 2).

Schultz defines listening as “more than just hearing….[it is] how a teacher attends to individuals, the classroom as a group, the broader social context, and, cutting across all of these, to silence and acts of silencing” (p. 8). Schultz presents her conceptual framework in this first chapter, but readers will have to stay the course to fully understand her view of listening. Those who decide to read only the chapters that appear relevant.

Critical Passages Teaching the Transition to College Composition

The course in this volume asks the fundamental questions: What is writing (and what might it be for those entering the university), what are its possible uses (both inside and outside the academy), and how it might be valued (what makes writing good, and good for what)? The course described in these pages was developed in the context of the distinctive and influential NYU writing program.

And from within that program, Kristin Dombek and Scott Herndon have created an intriguing and compelling course, one they have designed and taught and presented to others, a course that negotiates the wonderful (and surprising) conjunction of grammar, theory, and popular culture. In the current academic market, books like this are few and far between. It is not a textbook, yet it is a book addressed to teachers and students.
