Assignment Transcript

In her assignment, Tanya Hammond discusses the significance of critical thinking in the classroom, particularly in ESL education. She shares her experiences as “The Why Teacher,” where she encouraged students to move beyond basic responses and explore the reasons behind their feelings and thoughts. By asking probing questions, she helped students articulate their emotions and thoughts more clearly, fostering a richer dialogue. This method not only enhanced their language skills but also developed their critical thinking abilities, allowing them to analyze and articulate their perspectives effectively. Through this approach, students learned to appreciate the complexity of communication and the importance of understanding the underlying reasons for their responses.
