Critical Thinking: An In-Depth View Of A Situation

Decent Essays
Krystal that is so true critical thinking is an in-depth view of a situation. We as people think every day but most of the time we are not using our critical thinking skills. Most of the think when we as people think our thoughts are mostly opinionated. This is not critical thinking at all. Anyone can address a situation and give you a response formulated by the opinion but this is not a critical way of thinking. Critical thinking involves a person examining the ends and outs a particular situation. Afterwards the person develops this best plan of action to address the situation whether they agree with the plan or not. Critical thinkers understand that their way of doing things may not necessarily be the best way to accomplish the mission.
