Yildirim, Ali
Journal of Educational Research, v88 n1 p28-35 Sep-Oct 1994
This study surveyed public school teachers to investigate their theoretical orientations toward teaching thinking and toward two views about the nature of thinking (content-oriented and skills-oriented). Results showed that less than one-fourth presented a clear content or skill orientation. Most had mixed views about the two theories. (SM)
