Synopsis

This book emphasizes the importance of problem-solving in daily life and education, showing how skillful problem-solving can be taught in schools. The author, a leading authority on reflective thinking, shares sample lessons that illustrate how teachers can create problem-solving situations for pupils, from designing grocery stores in kindergarten to debating sugar production in seventh grade. These examples demonstrate how students can be trained to think critically, evaluate data, and propose solutions, preparing them for the increasingly complex problem-solving challenges they will face in their personal lives and careers.
