Critical thinking can be seen as having two
components: 1. A set of information and belief generating and processing
skills, and 2. The habit, based on intellectual commitment, of using those
skills to guide behavior. It is thus to be contrasted with 1. The mere
acquisition and retention of information alone, because it involves a
particular way in which information is sought and treated; 2. The mere
possession of a set of skills, because it involves the continual use of them; and
3. The mere use of those skills (‘as an exercise’) without acceptance of their
results (Scriven and Paul, 1987).

Proposals
Deadline approaches for OCLC/ALISE LIS
faculty research grant proposals
OCLC Online Computer Library Center, Inc.
and OCLC Research, in collaboration with the Association for Library and
Information Science Education (ALISE), invite research proposals for the 2011
Library and Information Science Research Grant Program (LISRGP). Awards of up
to $15,000 are available to full-time academic faculty in schools of library
and information science or related fields.
Proposals, which are to be submitted
electronically, are due by midnight Wednesday, 15 September 2010.
OCLC and ALISE encourage international
proposals and collaborative projects under this program. To aid new
researchers, priority will be given when possible to proposals from junior
faculty and applicants who have not previously received LISRGP funds.
Award recipients will be notified by the
end of 2010 and will be honored at the 2011 ALISE Annual Conference, 4-7 January 2011, in San Diego, California.
