The Critical Thinking Disposition of Alternative Certification Students
Jones, Timothy B.
Teacher Education and Practice, v16 n3 p285-300 Fall 2003
This article examines the disposition toward critical thinking of post-baccalaureate initial certification students at a Texas institution of higher education using the California Critical Thinking Disposition Inventory. The inventory characterizes seven subscales of critical thinking disposition and an eighth combined score for overall critical thinking disposition. The study also demographically characterizes the participants of this program. Analysis of the data documents a low level of critical thinking disposition by the PBIC students. Only 5.55% of the study participants demonstrated an overall strength in critical thinking disposition, while 22.22% indicated an overall weakness in critical thinking disposition. (Contains 8 tables.)
