Totally agree. I remember the phrase “learning how to think” being thrown around.
I also remember not being explicitly taught that.
It sort of seems like trying to find enlightenment by chopping wood and carrying water at a monastery.
If critical thinking is something that spontaneously emerges in a learning environment, maybe we shouldn’t sell it as a benefit. “Some students experience deep insight into the nature of the mind. Results not typical.”
