The CoRT 5 Thinking Lessons are concerned with practical information: with eliciting information and with assessing it. Some of the lessons are concerned with making the student aware of different aspects of information. For example, the lesson on shooting questions and fishing questions clarifies the difference between these two types of questions and encourages the student to use each type deliberately in order to elicit information. The lesson on ready-mades illustrates the substitutes that are often offered in place of personal thinking.
