How do we define thinking? Is it simply memory, perception and motor activity or perhaps something more complex such as reasoning and decision making? This book argues that thinking is an intricate mix of all these things and a very specific coordination of cognitive resources. Divided into three key sections, there are chapters on the organization of human thought, general reasoning and thinking and behavioural outcomes of thinking. These three overarching themes provide a broad theoretical framework with which to explore wider issues in cognition and cognitive psychology and there are chapters on motivation and language plus a strong focus on problem solving, reasoning and decision making – all of which are central to a solid understanding of this field. The book also explores the cognitive processes behind perception and memory, how we might differentiate expertise from skilled, competent performance and the interaction between language, culture and thought.

American schools don't teach students how to solve problems, but ever since 2008, Japanese schools do.Fortunately for America, there are two strategies for solving problems, and the Japanese strategy reasons forwards from cause to effect. They brainstorm root causes by asking, "What COULD BE the root causes?" Then, they start guessing, which is slow and ineffective. This approach rarely finds every root cause, so it rarely develops complete solutions.The better approach reasons backwards from effect to cause, using Sherlock Holmes' strategy of Observation and Deduction. Problem solvers ask, "What IS different when problems occur?" They observe the situation to discover clues that quickly identify every root cause, which leads to complete solutions. Reasoning backwards is 4 times more effective than reasoning forwards.One set of problem solving tools based on Holmes' strategy delivers superior results, but it has never been taught in school. Now, this book introduces Holmes' strategy and these tools to students. For the first time, students can leave school prepared to be world-class problem solvers.

The growing emphasis on developing the mathematical reasoning and problem solving skills of young students makes this an ideal resource for elementary school teachers. It provides new and seasoned teachers with classroom-tested, hands-on materials, including over 200 reproducibles and black-line masters as well as practical suggestions for practice, evaluation and diagnostic assessment of reasoning and problem solving skills. The book is logically organized - first providing teachers with an overview of key concepts and basic suggestions for getting the most success out of what is offered. Following chapters unfold with classroom-ready activities organized according to the five stages of the heuristic process. Individual and group challenges encourage students to Read and Think, Explore and Plan, Select a Strategy, Find an Answer, and Reflect and Extend. In addition, there are collections of Non-Routine Problems, and of Open Ended Problems Requiring an Extended Response. Answers are provided to all problems, including effective strategies for accepting and evaluating answers to open ended problems.
