Week6, An Intro to Critical Thinking
I actually enjoyed reading article because it tells the reader step bystep how to use critical thinking skills in coursework but as well asin daily life situations. I agree with the author in which he statesthat many of the high school students coming out of high school donotknow how to use critical thinking skills and never the less do not knowhow to solve real life sitautions. For example, my youngest sister is17 years old and she does not have any critical thinking skills what soever. She thinks that the world revolves around her and no one else.But what my questions is, is it because the parents fault also, thatmany students aren't able to comprehend between not knowing andknowing? I can't recall critical thinking skills being a requirementwhen I graduated from high school, but I do agree that it should be arequirement for student now. I think it would be a great experiencebecause the student would be more critical about real life situationsand would be a course that students would not dread to take in college.I like the way the author makes this manual easy to understand andbasically wrote it in kindergarten style. Im for sure going to retainthis manual for future classes but as well to share it with my nieces,nephews, sister and as well as my own children.
