Session Overview

This session explores the concept of approaching your research and reading from different viewpoints and the idea that we all read for different purposes. This enables critical thinking. We will use deBono’s six thinking hats (www.debono.com) to provide a framework for this approach and to hopefully better your confidence when evaluating academic texts in future.
