Someone knows how to think when they are able to draw conclusions from something presented to them. They are able to have their own opinion about anything using knowledge they already have.
2. How does a teacher teach a student how to think?
They present the student with information but allows them to process it on their own. They do not just give the students the answers but encourages them to dig deep and see what they are able to come up with on their own. Make them think outside of the box, this may mean that the student has to step out of their comfort zone.
3. Have you ever been in a class where you really had to think?
Yes, every class I am forced to think deeper of what the teacher is saying. I am constantly forced to make connections with my daily life and the information presented in class. Some examples of thinking I have had to do is in elementary school thinking about topics to write about, solving math problems, and thinking about the alphabet. There are those classes that are strictly memorizing information that do not require much thinking.
