In this episode, we explore the fundamental elements of critical thinking, how to signpost it, and why context matters. We discuss how to model critical thinking and when to engage students in the process. Are we presenting students with too many "simple" problems with pat answers? Or should we give students wicked problems without clear answers?
Special Guest: Adam M. Persky, Ph.D. - Associate Dean, Professional Education - University of North Carolina Eshelman School of Pharmacy
