Critical Thinking Blog #1

How would you define "critical thinking?" Can it be taught?

Critical Thinking is a way of interpreting something in a more in-depth logic. One should see the different perspectives that arise and have an independent way of thinking but still respect the opinions of others. This way of thinking appears in school many times, but I don't think it can be taught. One needs to expand their mind and open up the box to see the different components to critical thinking. Many people appear to be stuck in a stubborn bubble, where everything is either black or white. Each person needs to figure out critical thinking for themselves, therefore it is learned through experience instead of just being taught.
