Critical Thinking Skills Applied Customizable Courseware
Putting Critical Thinking Theory into Practice Critical thinking is reasonable, reflective thinking that is focused on deciding what to believe and what to do. It requires collecting information and then thoughtfully evaluating it in order to guide decision making. Ultimately, creative thinking streamlines processes, improves productivity, and enhances leadership – the benefits extend even beyond this list. Luckily, you can improve critical thinking skills. Critical Thinking Skills Applied helps participants improve critical thinking skills by putting theory into practice. It begins with an introduction to the process of critical thinking and the characteristics it encourages as well as the common mistakes one should avoid. Participants are then called to use their critical thinking skills to analyze a series of case studies or real-world scenarios where they'll learn to challenge information, recognize biases, and assess options. The practical, interactive activities deepen insight and facilitate participants' ability to actively translate the learned material into their work back on the job.
