Limitations

The greatest setback that I will face, which perhaps could halt this inquiry project altogether, is student engagement. The topic of critical thinking is often foreign and scary, which often deters students because it is foreign to them. However, discussing topics that students are generally interested in and including technology into the lessons can be a way to peak their interest. One way to avoid disengagement could be to avoid introducing the lessons that include the words “critical thinking”. By naturally flowing into and integrating activities such as online research, producing media advertisements, or finding pros and cons to an article, students can improve thinking and analyzing skills.
