teaching about thinking...

Now teaching about thinking is a more in depth to "Teaching two kinds of thinking". It is the teaching and the learning of the two different thought processes. After reading this article  I found that the first order has no limits; that anything is up for interpretation. My favorite line from this article is " There is no right way to think or write" (pg.39).
If teachers were to teach this early on we would have a lot more writers in the world. In the education system, as a student, we are taught that their are right and wrong ways to do something. Then our brains get trained to this one way of thinking. Writing is enjoyable because it is fluid, there is no right or wrong answer or a wrong way to explain something...as long as you have the evidence to back it up.
