This fits right in with my longstanding interest in critical thinking and literacies. Miguel Guhlin rounds up a host of CER (claim, evidence, reasoning) CER resources. I would have quibbles (for example: why not use the word 'because'? and why not say 'we know' instead of 'in science we know'?). The resources are mostly focused on science classes but the method is sound and can be used much more broadly - in any subject, really. It focuses reasoning on what we know, rather than merely what we believe or what we hope, and this can be applied anywhere.
