Think or Sink! : Strategies for Successful Learning

By Susan B. Ziemba

Your brain benefits from exercise, just like your body. By learning about and practicing the strategies in this book, you'll develop critical thinking skills that will help you succeed in school, career, and personal life. Short A - Z sections will introduce you to critical thinking concepts by guiding you through an interactive learning process - Tell Me, Show Me, Involve Me, & Step Back and I Will Act - using graphic organizers that help you analyze and evaluate information and ideas. You'll apply each strategy to a real life problem or situation you choose to transfer the learning to your brain's long term memory. The result? As you learn, practice, and internalize the six Bloom thinking strategies - remember, understand, apply, analyze, evaluate, and create - your mind will strengthen, your observational skills will improve, and you will be better prepared to thoughtfully respond to circumstances in your life. Permission is given for you to copy the activity pages to share with family and friends or use in group instruction. Author Susan Ziemba is a passionate retired educator who used these strategies to help thousands of teenagers and adults develop their skills to think, read, problem-solve, decide, and communicate with demonstrated success. This is the 2nd book in the series ABCs of the Mind: How to Self-Direct My Learning, My Life.
