Summary We have tried to put down in one place, in an organized fashion, much of what we have come to believe about how to teach effectively for thinking. /// The organizing ideas for the entire volume come from Sternberg's triarchic (3-part) theory of thinking, according to which thinking is of 3 basic kinds: analytical, creative, and practical. /// Our book is for teachers of students in grades K through 12. Our mission is to help them understand the various kinds of thinking, and then to apply these understandings directly to their instruction.
