課程介紹
Part 1: Problem Identification (10 minutes)
- Introduce the idea that critical thinking is essential for solving everyday problems, from playground conflicts to project management issues.
- Present a clear, concise "Problem Focus" to the students (e.g., "The classroom is always messy," "Our team consistently misses deadlines," "The school garden is neglected").
Part 2: The "Five Whys" Technique (10 minutes)
The "Five Whys" is an iterative interrogative technique used to explore the cause-and-effect relationships underlying a particular problem.
- Explain the method: State the problem, then ask "Why?" five times, using the answer to the previous "why" as the basis for the next question.
- Model the first step as a class/group activity. (Example: Problem: The garden is neglected. Why? Lack of water.)
- Divide. Have the students push past surface-level answers to uncover the root cause.
Part 3: Solution Generation and Evaluation (20 minutes)
- Brainstorm discussion: solutions that address the root cause (Why 5), not just the symptoms (Why 1).
- Evaluate the feasibility and impact of each proposed solution using a simple matrix or class vote. (e.g., "Replacing the hose" is a short-term fix; "Lobbying decision-makers for inclusion in the budget process" is a long-term critical thinking solution).
Part 4: Action Plan and Reflection (10 minutes)
- Develop a simple action plan for the chosen solution.
- Reflect as a whole group on the process:
- "How did asking 'why' multiple times change your perspective on the problem?"
- "Why is it important to look for root causes rather than just fixing symptoms?"
