Abstract | This study describes the rationale and activities developed and tested by a project in Israel entitled Biology Critical Thinking (BCT). The BCT project aims at developing a pool of activities that can be incorporated within the regular course of study without investing too much extra time. The purposes of the study are: (1) to present the rationale of the BCT project; (2) to describe an example of a BCT activity, and the responses to it in the classroom; and (3) to report the results of a pilot study that examined the feasibility of implementing some BCT activities. This study may be regarded as a small step in the direction of developing reasoning skills through activities which can be readily incorporated into the regular school curriculum by the majority of classroom teachers.
