How to Think

How to Think

Rick Norwood
4/5 ( ratings)
Thinking is what humans do best, and yet in America we seem to have given up on the idea of teaching students how to think. "How to Think" teaches basic critical thinking skills.

To think clearly, you must understand:

• Sometimes you are going to be wrong.
• Always ask yourself, “Why do I think that?”
• Some of your best thinking happens when you are asleep, but you first need to learn the facts so that your subconscious mind has something to work on.
• There is no group of people in which everyone is alike. If anyone tells you that everyone in a group is alike, they are not worth listening to. I stress this, because thinking about groups as if they were all alike causes more unnecessary suffering than any other bad habit of thought.
• In thinking about politics, listen to what the candidates say and do, but never pay any attention to what one party says about the other party.

The author teaches critical thinking skills in several courses, including Logic and Problem Solving, Mathematical Reasoning, and History of Mathematics.
