A Critical Thinking Model for Teaching Human Behavior and the Social Environment

This paper presents a critical analysis model for innovative teaching of Human Behavior and the Social Environment (HBSE). This model calls for developing students' critical thinking skills. It introduces students to two analytical frameworks and ten critical questions as tools to analyze and debate HBSE theories. The success of a student's ability to utilize critical thinking skills in theory analysis or in service delivery systems will provide the means for evaluating this innovation.
