Using Brain Teasers to Build Critical Thinking Skills

i was about to comment roosters dont lay eggs but the other commenters beat me lol

East

😄😄i was faild 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅

The first answer is not possible as how.rooster can lay egs but second is the match

I got it right without a problem 💀

Hey the match couldn't light by it self y'know..

Bite me.

The narrator got me angry twice

waddup 7A
IF YOU HERE

I'm dumb🙈🙉🙊

the fact that I didn't get the answers right throughout the video says something

What if the rooster identifies as a hen?

They do lag small eggs

Information is not Understanding.

I knew the answer to the match/candle/lamp/stove riddle thanks to professor Layton puzzles.

omigosh i really need help, i got both the first and second one wrong

how can you lit a match if you don't have a matchbox?

for the second riddle, how do you light the match without a match box?

I am more of a visual thinker, I saw the egg pop out of the rooster so I believed it laid an egg! lol

How do you light the match stick without a striker? That's terrible difficult and inconvenient. Best answer is to just turn on the stove

Alright smartass how do you light the match without the matchbox?

How applicable this is for today’s society…

The rooster identify as she/her

Thank you for the reminder to have a daily 'think'' for my students.

Dude, as a critical reasoning teacher i can savely say that you don't know what critical reasoning is. If you are after some money, get an actual job.

There are some gas stoves that doesn’t need for a match and matchbox though 😂😂

And this is why all the children in 🇺🇸 are dumb

I was asked which direction the egg would roll, not whether the rooster was or wasn’t an egg-ception to the egg laying rule.

What about those who don't know meaning of rooster

These days, this riddle is vastly more difficult as most of the Western world thinks "rosters" can "lay eggs"…

In the second teaser I got a question how do you light a match in a dark room if you can't see?

Puzzle maker says a rooster lays an egg, I work with that. Unsatisfying.

What if the rooster identifies as a female. Come on it’s 2023😂

It got me twice😅😅

sometime, i should should try to change the way I thinking specially to out put a amazing result.

While brain teasers can be a fun and engaging way to promote critical thinking, it's important to note that critical thinking is a broader skill that can be developed through various activities, including analyzing literature, engaging in debates, and solving real-world problems. Brain teasers can be a valuable component of a more comprehensive approach to building critical thinking skills.

What if I made a cartoon with a three ghosts flying around and ask, “how many ghosts do you see? If you answered 3 you’re wrong because ghosts don’t exist you idiot!” And animate the ghosts disappearing. This is clearly what you just did with the egg. My critical thinking skills are off the charts!

You bigot. Hen identifying Roosters can lay eggs.

I'm absolutely enthralled by this material. A book I engaged with on this subject matter profoundly changed my views. "Unlocking the Brain's Full Potential" by Alexander Sterling

Maybe the rooster is physiologically a hen, but it identifies as a male.

what if rooster was transgender 🙂

I found the questions kinda stupid and not really helping in improving critical thinking. There was a logical fallacy in the answer to the second question because the second brain teaser question, “Which do you light first?” implies which one of the things mentioned would you light first. The answer would be correct if the question were “What do you light first?”

I'm not so sure these are "brain teasers", they seem more like trick questions. These would actually discourage a kid from wanting to do more. A better scenario would be solving crimes.

I got the match one correct, atleast.

Unless its an intersex rooster.

People who have heard both of these before.

Wrong. This is a video about critical thinking, not biological essentialism in natural kinds theory. The rooster egg rolls West.

You saig "A Rooster lays an egg" I allowed that for the hypothetical, as that is what I thought the query wanted. I thought you were using poetic license to make your point about the egg.

I honestly thought to myself "a rooster can't lay an egg" then immediately disregarded that as a solution (which is a weakness I admit) but I did so because in my experience people are by and large aren't very well informed. Some people think that pineapples grow on trees, and I grew up somewhere (in the third world) where they thought that chickens could only lay eggs when a rooster was involved and there are so many more examples of this.

Also if you are in a dark room with single match, a lamp, candle and stove you can't light the match because matches can't be lit without a striker strip – unless you have a very specific type of match. So the presenter is falling prey to the exact same issue he described.

The question confused me with the wind because male chickens don't lay eggs lol
