    said it before and i will say it again,,,, humanity needs to stop chasing answers and start learning how to ask the correct question... i have just learnt that is was also a strategy of Socrates. We have a tendency to feel confident with an answer that explains things rather than to realise many answers are possible but only one is correct...

    Critical thinking is not as simple as many of us think it is. It is a logical thinking pattern where everything has to go through a why, how, filters. Nothing is aquaiced or blindly accepted with out thinking outside the box. The biggest enemy to critical thinking is conformity and as such

    Counter arguments and supporting evidence - point, explain in reasoning and example - PEE. You have to read a lot to understand the thinking from last to present. Freewill…..being a democracy is huge. I teach overseas students and they learn this here……which they love

    It’s the art of dialectic questionning: argument versus counter-argument, with a skeptical mindset. Always wondering about other possible viewpoints. To come to a well thought-through conclusion.

    How the academics defined critical thinking is useful, but not useful enough. It's not enough to simply ask why. Many students ask why, especially during their early education years. But they are not necessarily thinking critically. There may be elements of it. It's more useful to think of critical thinking as the questioning of claims. "Is it really true? How do we know? Where is the evidence that supports it? Is this evidence reliable? Is it outdated?" etc. As can be seen, there very little why, yet these are the types of questions most don't engage in. Intuitively we may recognize these questions as part of critical thinking but they still need to be formalized. All critical thinking includes the "Why" but it is not all of or most of it.

    I think not all of us can ask those questions as student maybe later on but for now my head thinks all lectures are always right
