The book explains how infusion-thinking lessons can be structured to help students develop critical thinking along with language learning. Further, it uses a case study as a real-world example to examine the applicability and feasibility of infusion-thinking lessons in the EFL context and their effectiveness in developing students? critical thinking and language learning. Packed with thinking activities and techniques, this practical, hands-on manual provides original ideas and empirical data, giving teachers everything they need to plan their lessons to improve students? critical thinking within language courses and evaluate their teaching. 606 $aApplied linguistics 606 $aLanguage and languages?Study and teaching 606 $aApplied Linguistics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/N13000 606 $aLanguage Teaching$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O46000 615 0$aApplied linguistics. 615 0$aLanguage and languages?Study and teaching. 615 14$aApplied Linguistics. 615 24$aLanguage Teaching. 676 $a428.0071 700 $aLin$b Yue$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0921310 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300580603321 996 $aDeveloping Critical Thinking in EFL Classes$92066429 997 $aUNINA
