Synopsis

This book examines how critical thinking is regulated in Singapore through the process of what the seminal education theorist Bail Bernstein labelled as "pedagogic recontextualisation". It studies the ways in which Singapore recontextualises its critical thinking methodologies as it grooms its people for an economy focused on "knowledge skills".
