Abstract	Critical thinking (CT) teaching strategies are an effective way for teacher educators, especially those of child development students, to help students understand the individual nature of the learning process, the need for dialogue and interaction, and the need for students to be able to apply theory to practice. CT involves the ability to use what one knows about the world, including feelings and intuition, to evaluate the quality of conclusions. CT strategies include aspects of active learning, but with greater expectations. Students are expected to use their available metacognitive abilities to analyze their own performance, and evaluate and make use of their own abilities and talents as well as the abilities and talents of other students. Appendixes provide a list of differences between active learning and CT, an example of a CT individual group activity, and an example of a CT cooperative group activity. (MDM)
