This book was released on 2017 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The current study investigates the relationship between critical thinking skills and learning styles of mentally gifted students. The participants were 225 gifted students in Turkey attending Science and Art Centres which are after-school activity centers for mentally gifted students. Participants were 9-15 years old and were attending secondary schools and high schools. The data were gathered using the Kolb Learning Style Inventory and the Critical Thinking Scale and analyzed using Chi-Square, t test, ANOVA and regression analyses. The findings revealed that gender was not a significant variable for learning styles but it was a significant variable for critical thinking skills. Gifted students had high scores on the Critical Thinking scale. Relationships were also found between gifted students' learning styles and their critical thinking skills except in the analysis dimension of the Critical Thinking scale. Gifted students who achieved the highest scores on the scale had assimilating and converging learning styles.

Download or read book Handbook of Research on Critical Thinking Strategies in Pre Service Learning Environments written by Mariano, Gina J. and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2019-01-25 with total page 657 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learning strategies for critical thinking are a vital part of today’s curriculum as students have few additional opportunities to learn these skills outside of school environments. Therefore, it is of utmost importance for pre-service teachers to learn how to infuse critical thinking skill development in every academic subject to assist future students in developing these skills. The Handbook of Research on Critical Thinking Strategies in Pre-Service Learning Environments is a collection of innovative research on the methods and applications of critical thinking that highlights ways to effectively use critical thinking strategies and implement critical thinking skill development into courses. While highlighting topics including deep learning, metacognition, and discourse analysis, this book is ideally designed for educators, academicians, researchers, and students.

Book Learning Style Changes and Their Relationship to Critical Thinking Skills

Download or read book Learning Style Changes and Their Relationship to Critical Thinking Skills written by Costas Siriopoulos and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study reports on the results of a research on learning styles and critical thinking skills of sixty eight postgraduate students of Master's Level Business Education Programs. These students have participated in both phases of our research. In the first phase, carried out in spring 2005, Kolb's Learning Style Inventory (LSI v.3) was the basis of the administered questionnaire and in the second phase, carried our in winter 2005 - 06, the LSI v.3 and the California Critical Thinking Skills Test (CCTST) were the basis of the administered questionnaire. Results show that the prevailing learning style types are the 'assimilating' and the 'converging' ones. Between the first and the second phase students have become more balanced learners. This balanced learning development relates to both 'Concrete - Abstract' and 'Active - Reflective' dimensions of the learning process and this latter dimension correlates significantly with students' critical thinking skills on all scales of the used instrument.

Book Critical Thinking Skills

Download or read book Critical Thinking Skills written by Marcia Heiman and published by . This book was released on 1985 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intended for teachers across grade levels and disciplines, this monograph reviews research on the development of critical thinking skills and introduces a series of these skills that can be incorporated into classroom teaching. Beginning with a definition of critical thinking, the monograph contains two main sections. The first section reviews both research findings and several programs for improving students' thinking skills, and then discusses helping students to remember what they read, improve their problem-solving skills, and adjust to their differing learning styles in acquiring knowledge. The second section presents a number of exercises, for stimulating students' critical thinking, that involve generating questions, imaginative writing, feedback that improves student performance, working in pairs, exploring students' problem solving methods, preparing and sequencing classroom discussions, and generating examples of the terms and concepts encountered in the learning process. The monograph concludes with a list of thinking skills programs. (EL)

Book Relationship of Critical Thinking and Learning Styles to Nursing Diagnosis

Download or read book Relationship of Critical Thinking and Learning Styles to Nursing Diagnosis written by Lois Jean Hamilton and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Very few experimental studies were found that investigated the impact of learning styles and of teaching critical thinking along with nursing content on students' ability to learn nursing content and to use critical thinking skills. The primary focus of this study was to determine if teaching some the rules and principles of critical thinking and nursing diagnosis will increase Associate Degree Nursing (ADN) students' ability to write accurate nursing diagnoses. A secondary focus was to ascertain the learning style(s) which is/are conducive to learning critical thinking and nursing diagnostic skills. The students involved in this study were enrolled in the Associate Degree Nursing Program at Illinois Central College, East Peoria, Illinois. A quasi-experimental pretest-posttest design was used because it was necessary to use two intact classes as the treatment groups. The experimental group was taught some of the rules and principles of critical thinking, nursing process, and nursing diagnosis. The traditional group was taught some of the rules and principles of nursing process and nursing diagnosis. The data was collected with the following instruments: Watson-Glaser Critical Thinking Appraisal, Kolb's Learning Styles Inventory, and a researcher-developed nursing diagnosis test and an attitude scale. The data were analyzed by using t-tests of true mean scores, analysis of variance, analysis of covariance, and Pearson's r correlation. All hypotheses were tested for significance at the.05 level. From the results of this study, the following conclusions may be drawn regarding teaching selected critical thinking skills along with nursing diagnosis and the nursing process: (1) Nursing diagnosis and critical thinking means of the two groups did not improve. (2) The relationship between nursing diagnosis and critical thinking in the experimental group was strengthened. (3) There was no significant difference between learning styles and critical thinking, but students with assimilator learning styles had higher nursing diagnosis scores. (4) The two instructional methods did not significantly affect the students' attitudes toward using critical thinking skills and the nursing diagnostic process.
