What Do Pragmatists Have To Say about Critical Thinking?
Anderson, Haithe
Educational Theory, v51 n2 p209-19 Spr 2001
Uses Barbara Thayer-Bacon's work, "Transforming Critical Thinking," to consider pragmatism's different stances, redescribing critical thinking and discussing what ironists have to say about critical thinking. The article concludes that what enables the different stances are a set of academic protocols that define what is and what is not academic work. (SM)
