SB 1849: Critical Thinking for K-8 Pupils

Whereas SB 1849 would require the trustees to direct the Chancellor of the CSU to conduct a study of the CSU teacher preparation programs to assess the extent to which those programs prepare candidates for teaching credentials to teach critical thinking and problem-solving skills to K-8 pupils, and

Whereas the Academic Senate for California Community Colleges supports critical thinking instruction in K-8 which could contribute to better college/university preparedness,

Resolved that the Academic Senate support the concepts in SB 1849 as of April 7, 1994.
