What We're Thinking About: Transparent Thinking
I never read Donald Schon's Educating the Reflective Practitioner but I just read a review of it. I was especially struck by "you as the master must make your thinking transparent to the learner."
This reminded me of when I took a mandatory course for parents when I enrolled my son in driver's education. I was not impressed with the instructor initially, primarily because of his response to my question about how to best teach someone to drive a car with manual transmission. He told me that everyone has automatic transmission and I should too. When I said that he hadn't answered my question, he restated his views on manual transmissions and my need for a new car. This did not make me highly receptive to his instruction, but I took notice when he said that the best thing to do henceforth when your budding driver is in the car is to voice your thoughts: How are the weather conditions affecting you, why are you slowing down, your concerns about the erratic driving of the car ahead of you, etc.
His point was that these generally unvoiced thoughts help the inexperienced driver, focused on basics, to taste the insights of years of experience. Transparent thinking. While Schon's book is not recent, making an expert's thinking transparent is not explicitly done in most courses, online or otherwise.
