Bring Your Best Idea: Critical Thinking √ §

How do you actually move students beyond surface-level recall toward genuine analysis, evaluation, and original thinking? Not in theory — in your classroom, with your assignments, right now? How do you encourage them to dig into difficult concepts and not offload their thinking to ChatGPT? 

For Bring Your Best Idea sessions, we (locally) crowdsource answers to questions such as these. Please bring your best ideas to this lively, collaborative, and fast-paced sharing session. Anyone who has an idea to share with the whole group will have two minutes to describe it. No slides please, though a link to a handout is welcome. After 20-30 minutes of sharing ideas, we’ll shift to Q&A and discussion. Whether or not you bring an idea to share, you’ll leave this session with new food for thought and several new ideas you might try in your own course.
