Habits of Mind A Developmental Series

In the Habits of Mind series, noted educators Arthur L.Costa and Bena Kallick define and describe intelligent behaviours that they call ‘habits of mind’. These habits can aid both students and adults as they encounter life’s challenges, dilemmas and enigmas. With thinking skills essential to lifelong learning, Habits of Mind offers a straightforward approach to overcoming problems which do not have an immediately apparent resolution. The second in Costa and Kallick's Habits of Mind series, Activating and Engaging Habits of Mind helps teachers translate the ‘habits’ into action with practical, classroom-tested advice.
