520 3 _aThis study sought the effectiveness, authenticity, and transferability of CoRT Breadth of thinking lessons in enhancing learners’ achievements and extending learning outcomes both at the school and university levels. The research followed the quantitative design. 122 participants formed the study sample, (79) at the school level and (43) at the university level. First, in a private school in Beirut, CoRT (1) thinking lessons were directly communicated to a random experimental group of (32) 7 and 8 graders contrasted to (30) students as the control group. Also, (12) educators and (5) parents participated in the study course. CoRT thinking skills were envisioned as tools to enhance students’ test scores in comprehension, extend students’ HOTS, and create a thinking behavior. Second, CoRT (1) thinking skills were infused in a composition and research skills course in a private university in Beirut to discern its impact on a random sample of (43) learners’ achievements in critical thinking and creative problem solving. For the study purpose, the researcher applied a triangular method including pre-test post-test, questionnaires, interviews, and class observations at the school level accompanied with pre and post students’ self-assessment questionnaires at the university level. The data result was analyzed by using ANOVA measures, multiple tests, and P-values, and means were compared and interpreted inferentially and descriptively. The implemented program alleviated the test scores. However, sustainable learning outcomes were hardly observed due to time constraints though a birth of a positive thinking behavior was acclaimed. At the university level, the infused thinking skills enhanced students’ critical thinking and creative problem solving. To conclude, CoRT thinking tools were authentic and effective in creating a positive thinking behavior. Still, the study recommended more research in the thinking based teaching approach until transformation of learning endows sustainable learning outcomes.
