I plan to use the 0809workshops wiki as an informational tool to show them the basics of the Critical Thinking tools in our textbook. As you can see, I have added all three of the foundational tools: Elements of Thought, Intellectual Standards, and Intellectual Traits. Then in the Discussion tab, I added a brief explanation of how I want the students to use these tools to develop a more critical thinking approach to their learning process.
Students can then write their own discussion postings to explain how they perceive they are improving their thinking in each of the three areas. Students can expect to learn success strategies from each other, and they can also expect to be evaluated upon how well they express these gradients of change in their thinking process.
