Tools for Thinking.
Rubinstein, Moshe F.; Firstenberg, Iris R.
New Directions for Teaching and Learning, (Developing Critical Thinking and Problem-Solving Abilities) n30 p23-36 1987
The goal of problem-solving education should be to develop tools for thinking that will constitute a shell or framework of action procedures that can be applied on an ever-changing database. These tools come in the form of heuristics that can be modified and adapted to new situations. (Author/MLW)
