Teaching Critical Thinking in History: World Context for Global Citizens

In this presentation, I discuss my teaching strategies for cultivating students as global citizens who:

• EVALUATE THE RELIABILITY OF SOURCES

• ANALYZE CAUSE-AND-EFFECT CLAIMS,            INCLUDING WORLD CONTEXT

• IDENTIFY THEIR OWN BIASES

• ARE SKEPTICAL OF CONSPIRACY THEORIES

• SEEK A VARIETY OF PERSPECTIVES (HUMILITY)

• ARE THOUGHTFUL DECISION MAKERS
