    Dear Colleagues,

     

    I enjoy reading about the exciting research and activities share with this list.  I hope you can provide feedback on this area of critical thinking skills and undergraduates.

     

    I am on a task force focusing on reviewing how well we integrate critical thinking development into our undergraduate business school curriculum.  We're looking for pedagogical best practices – teaching, assignments, assessments, etc. Has your school done anything formal with regard to developing critical thinking or problem-solving skills for undergrads or MBA students? Or, have you done anything on this in your courses? If yes, would you share your experiences?

     

    Thanks and best wishes,

     

    Jody Tolan
