To Think or Not to Think: Instilling Critical Thinking in Anabaptist Youth
From the time of the early church fathers, to Manz and Grebel, up until now, critical thinking has played an exponentially important role in the development of the Christian church. This discussion will focus on ways to promote this in a classroom environment through conversations, environment, Bible study, kinesthetic manipulatives, and playing chess!
In this presentation Jeff Swanson covers:
Importance of Critical Thinking
Biblical and Historical Support
Avoiding Logical Fallacies
Practical Application in Education
Balancing Faith and Intellect
"To Think or Not to Think: Instilling Critical Thinking in Anabaptist Youth" was presented by Jeff Swanson at Teachers Week 2015, on August 4-7, 2015, held at Faith Builders Educational Programs in Guys Mills, Pennsylvania.
