The speaker was addressing a roomful of teachers. He said, "'Thinking' and 'thinkingcritically' aren't the same. For example, if you're thinking about what day it is, that's not thinking critically." He instantly heard some murmuring. A teacher said, "But that isn't even an example of 'thinking.' If you're thinking about what day it is, you're just trying to remember. Now, remembering may be a part of thinking, but it's not really thinking." He asked, "Well, how can it be a part of thinking without being thinking?" She said, "A wheel is part of a car, but it's not a car. It's just a wheel." He said, "Yes, but you can't compare 'thinking' to a car, can you? One is a process, and the other is a product." She said, "You're right about that. I think I'm going to have to think about this some more." He said, "Me too."
