*Time: 10.00-16.00
Venue: London Metropolitan University, North Campus – Graduate Centre

This interactive workshop will take a broad view of critical thinking
and the manner in which the term is used in higher education. Its aim is
that participants, through a series of practical activities, will
understand how critical thinking can be used to support and develop work
with students. They will especially be able to recognise issues of depth
in critical thinking, and how it can be applied to identifying specific
ways in which to enhance their work with student study processes.
