Teaching in the Age of Disinformation makes a case for the
importance of developing students' intelligent habits of mind so
that they become more discriminating consumers of the information
that comes at them from the Internet, social media, television and
the tabloid press in this "alternate truth" era. Part I sets the
stage for the need for an informed citizenry, given the many and
varied sources of disinformation that they are exposed to and what
the implications are when they are unable to make such
distinctions. Part II deals with the specifics of how teachers may
develop curriculum activities that call for higher order thinking,
within the many and diverse subject areas of elementary and
secondary education. Hundreds of examples of curriculum activities
are included, as well as suggestions for how teachers use higher
order questioning strategies in classroom discussions to enable and
promote student thinking. "A pleasure to read," the book draws on
the author's long and extensive experience in teaching, writing and
research with "teaching for thinking," and offers teachers
research-tested ways to incorporate the development of students'
intelligent habits of mind in their daily classroom work.
