Lockhart, Marilyn; Borland, Kenneth W., Jr.
Journal of Faculty Development, v18 n1 p19-26 2001
Reports on a study of critical thinking goals in senior capstone courses. Finds that: (1) independent research and group projects are the most effective methods to teach critical thinking, according to faculty; and (2) students felt that they expanded their intellectual curiosity and learned to think more effectively because of these courses. Includes recommendations for faculty and administration. (Contains 20 references.) (EMH)
