What are the Habits of Mind
A Habit of Mind is knowing how to behave intelligently when you
DON'T know the answer.
A Habit of Mind means having a disposition toward behaving
intelligently when confronted with problems, the answers to
which are not immediately known: dichotomies, dilemmas, enigmas
and uncertainties.
"Habits of Mind are
the characteristics of what intelligent people do when they are
confronted with problems, the resolutions of which are not
immediately apparent." (Costa)
