RE: Critical Thinking: The OTHER "National Deficit?"
Don't about united school and colleges, but here in our region i think we are not producing genius mind who are aware of critical thinking. Mostly people learn these skills while doing job. School are run to earn money. A student who learn like a parrot get good result/marks. even use of apps google and other tools reduce student skill of thinking.
In many cases, that would be true, too. Oddly enough, there's a conflict between running schools to "make money" and the fact that well-educated thinking individuals are also needed in order for companies to make money.
It's also true that more and more people end up with skills that are "looking things up" rather than learning things.
