Metrics

Being able to measure critical thinking is a key part of teaching it. Our goal is to develop K-12 measures for each of the four elements of CT (concepts, skills, ethics, and barriers). The links below will take you to the measures we currently have available. New measures will be added as we develop or obtain them, so please check back periodically.
