About this title

Synopsis:

One of the greatest challenges currently facing the education system is that of preparing children to live in a rapidly changing technological world. The author addresses a feeling of obligation among educators to strengthen intellectual skills and abilities, including the exercise of critical thought. The author also offers some solutions to problems associated with critical thinking. The second part of the book deals with the theoretical work of Alfred Korzybski, applying his work in language evaluation to "television evluation".
