I have come here to offer this woman a most sincere apology! I purchased her latest book and read the first 60 pages or so. What struck me was the "omission" of outrage regarding the racism that has plagued America for my entire life of 63. I sent her an email saying as much and one was returned by an assistant informing me that Ms Elder had written about racism in other publications. At that time, I felt "put off" and saw it as somewhat typical of whites in America. A short time after, the youtube algorithm assumed I was interested in listening to an earlier video of hers and I clicked on. In that video, Ms Elder did comment on the lack of critical thinking skills in racist ideology. Perhaps I expected Ms Elder to stomp and scream out about bigotry. Whatever the case, I have since listened to people who were experts in NLP and other supposed thinking methods and none contained the elements of critical thinking espoused by Ms Elder. To her, I want and need to offer a most humbling apology and sincere praise for her research, hard work and tolerance of those who mistake her decorum for a lack of sympathy.

Thank you both Doctors for this true words

Thank you Doctors for this highly valuable audio of Dr Richard Paul

In the Yukon?? Wow! Hello from Whitehorse 😊

Is not taught or accepted in society and companies!

Thank you Dr Paul for sharing the truth about critical thinking

But if we use chat Gpt, 😂 you dont have to think about it ! “ joke “

I have worked through this and have witnessed one who simply refused to accept this model of critical thinking. He said that if he were to do this, it would call into question everything he believed in! That's actually the point! It's very sad that people fail to use this remarkable ability that we have to reason to the fullest extent that we presently understand.

We don't have time to educate the children! They have to pass a test.

When I first learned the Critical Thinking model she describes here, I looked for other models that were better, more fundamental, more central to the idea of Critical Thinking. I'm still looking. This model is simply the best there is. Everyone ought to know this. Intuitively, we all do, at least to a degree, but that is no substitute for explicitly understanding and purposefully using this model in our thinking.

Very useful points

I am a marxist and a historian and i love your example. Most of us do only present a marxist view. Just as liberals often present only their view. Historians, educators, and thinkers of all stripes ought be held against a critical lens. This is easily the best logic and critical thinking channel on youtube and i look forward to your discussions every time. Thank you for your work and for sharing this series!😊

This is an amazing lecture! I have greatly enjoyed how Dr. Paul demonstrated our egocentric nature and ease of validation and as an instructor who offered skills that Dr.Paul and Dr. Linda Elder have offered in thier wonderful book, l was able to coordinate very fruitful discussions and show that we can always become more rational. Thank you for posting this valuable video

Thank you opening up the archives and sharing the videos. I always miss the live webinars with Drs. Linda Elder because of timezone differences and my current data plan. These videos will definitely keep me busy and thinking.

Great episode with Dr. John Cook! Excellent research and resources!

Why is there so much indifference concerning the struggles of Boys and Men ? How can people today struggle with two social challenges at once ? Boys and Men and Girls and Women ?

Thank you Linda and Gerald for posting these short videos on critical thinking. I attended one of your week long conferences in Arkansas a few years ago and thoroughly enjoyed it. Keep up the great work. Thank you.

Two things to remember when learning critical thinking, "It is not the case that I am always rational, and the people I disagree with are always irrational or arrogant". "Don't only find errors in the reasoning of other peoples, but also improve your reasoning". This is a nice video

Absolutely delighted to have discovered "The Foundation for Critical Thinking" Thanks for your continued efforts Dr. Linda Elder.🧠💓🔥☝
