Re: Critical Thinking Project

     I am a college teacher.  In conjunction with a friend, the biologist
Michael Wirth of New England College, we are collecting syllabi of courses in
any discipline and at all levels, kindergarten through university, which
contain significant elements of instruction in critical thinking, either as a
separate topic or in conjuction with the more usual content of the course.
Our object is to publish a selection of the best as prgamatic models to aid
other teachers.  If you teach such a course or know of such a course, please
