Inhaltsangabe

Boostrom (education, U. of Southern Indiana) addresses the current emphasis on standardized curriculum and its impediment to intellectual engagement. To demonstrate the ways the practice of teaching unintentionally promotes non-thinking, he examines the paradoxes of defining, telling and believing. Using real-life examples, Boostrom discusses the problem of non-thinking in relation to multiple intelligences, disciplinary boundaries, narrative, cultural literacy and plagiarism.
