Do you teach to think or teach what to think?

Teach to think. Put the onus on them to research and verify for themselves. That's how you build trust and rapport.

I would have to say teach to think Sgt Joe LaBranche . Great thought provoking question!

I teach to think but unfortunately it becomes increasingly difficult because people expect you to teach what to think. I've tried inspiring people's critical thinking skills a few times by posting those brain teasers you'll typically see people share on Facebook. I've had people genuinely get angry for "making them feel stupid" or because "we're not in school anymore, I don't need to know that".

I find it disappointing that people would actually get angry because they would have to think for more than a second.
