Critical Thinking
I am working on
questions about the assessment of critical thinking, including the use and
design of critical thinking rubrics. Last year, I chaired a SUNY-wide committee
that designed this Critical Thinking
Rubric. It is now being used at many SUNY campuses to assess student
critical thinking competency. The committee also developed the following Anchor Essays, illustrating how the
rubric can be used to grade a student’s work. For more information, visit
the SUNY
General Education website, or contact
me.
