Section 1 Reflection (1000 words): Write a reflection on the concept of critical thinking based on class work, Moodle activities, and unit readings. The focus of the reflection should be on what critical thinking is, why it is important, and how it can be integrated into teaching and learning, as well as in your discipline area. You should also draw specifically on your discussion in readings groups. You should cite a range of unit readings and materials to support your ideas.
Section 2 The case for change (500 words): Building on the ideas discussed in section 1, what do you believe are the changes needed in education to bring critical thinking and criticality more centrally into classroom practice? Use your personal voice in this section to
argue a case for change
.
Section 3 Teaching Activity (500 words): Focusing on your discipline area, and nominating a year level, topic and context for teaching,
develop one teaching and learning activity
that demonstrates the integration and centralisation of critical thinking into teaching and learning. This should be a teachable and practical activity that can be part of a larger unit of work. You should refer to the Australian Curriculum and/or the Victorian Curriculum in developing the content for this activity. Include relevant curriculum codes and write an outcome for the activity related to both your discipline content and critical thinking.
