You will have been challenged to question your assumptions, check for bias, and assess evidence rather than accepting information at face value. It is a skill that is essential to solve problems effectively and reach decisions. This book will discuss the various elements of critical thinking including analysis, evaluation, inference, reflection and synthesis.
It will show you how to develop critical thinking skills by asking for evidence to support claims that are being made, seeking out alternative viewpoints to get a broad perspective, identify beliefs that may not be supported once you know the facts, checking the reliability of information, especially that found online, engaging with other people's ideas so you can understand their thinking.
Learning how to think critically will:
• Improve your decision-making
• Solve problems
• Boost both academic and professional success
• Allow the development of independent thought
• Reduce your vulnerability to manipulation
