摘要：

Current reforms in mathematics education worldwide include the transition from algorithmic cognitive skills towards higher order cognitive skills, particularly critical thinking. Ennis defines critical thinking as "reasonable reflective thinking focused on deciding what to believe or do" (Ennis, 1987, 1989). This research investigated the viability and consequences of developing critical thinking among students through a program of instruction in probability, employing the infusion approach (Swartz, 1992). Statistical comparison of these students' averages in the Cornell tests focused on the relative rate of improvement. An ANOVA test showed that the experimental group considerably improved their critical thinking abilities and disposition. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
