Module 7: Activity 3 - Critical Thinking


Critical thinking is the ability to reasonably and reflectively use cognitive skills while deciding what to believe or do.  During this activity, my creative and collaborative skills were further developed through the mindmeister mind mapping activity.  The elements that caught my attention include purpose, Socratic questioning, self-reflection, evaluation, analysis, interpretation, assumptions, point of view, data, information, evidence, concepts, ideas, drawing conclusions, giving meaning to data, implications and consequences.  Having conducted the analysis of critical thinking in the classroom I noticed that I have been practicing some of these elements without awareness of the fact.
