Critical thinking involves analyzing, evaluating, and synthesizing information to make reasoned judgments. It’s the process of actively questioning assumptions, considering different perspectives, and avoiding biases in order to arrive at well-informed conclusions. Critical thinkers are curious, open-minded, and reflective, often asking questions like:
- What evidence supports this claim?
- Are there alternative viewpoints or explanations?
- What assumptions are being made?
- How do personal biases influence my thinking?
Is there a particular situation where you’re applying critical thinking, or are you exploring ways to enhance this skill?
