Episode 79 - Explaining critical thought in coaching

"A Problem Well Stated is Half Solved," said the late Charles Kettering who headed the GM research department in the mid 20th century. How does this apply to the application of critical thought in coaching, especially in minor hockey? Dean Holden explains what it means and how it applies, referring as well to the work of Robert Ennis ("Critical Thinking Dispositions"). Also mentioned is the 2006 World Cup match between Argentina and Serbia/Montenegro in which the Argentines completed 26 consecutive passes before scoring. Here is the YouTube link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GR3Om0WfErA The Robert Ennis research document PDF can be found online. (Note: As Richard Bercuson reiterates in the podcast, there is not, nor has there ever been, research suggesting a link between being near plastic pylons and cancer.)
