Critical Thinking
The Foil™
Make your thinking visible: frame a question, test your reasons, and explain your judgment.
The Foil brings critical-thinking practice into one workspace. Begin with your own question or interpretation, examine evidence and assumptions, consider another reading, and decide what you can support. Optional AI questions follow your own attempt; you can also complete an inquiry without AI.
Keep a private thinking record that preserves your starting point and the reasons for your later judgment. Try a new situation independently and choose a saved discussion copy to share with your peer learning facilitator in Writing Studio.
