"What's Going On In Our Schools?" reports a series of four research projects which sought answers to the question, what thinking skills, how, how much and why are encouraged among pupils and students? This volume analyzed the roots of learning problems, zeroed in on complaints about pupils' and students' low level of thinking principally focused on the memorization of facts, on inadequacy in engaging in higher-levels of cognition such as the ability to analyze, to formulate hypothesis, to solve problems, to raise probing questions, and the like. It also focuses on how to teach, on how to encourage students to engage in higher-order thinking and valuing skills." -- Provided by the author.
