Reflection on What I Found Interesting
In the past week, I learned something that I find interesting. It made me understand an issue differently. I learned about using critical thinking to expand and engage my thinking skills. I realized that critical thinking relates to nearly all tasks, topics, challenges, careers, opportunities, situations, and environments. It found it significant to apply critical thinking to complete my course work. It is a “domain-general” thinking proficiency, not precise to a specific subject area. In my experience, as an undergraduate learner, I usually tend to be naïve and take information devoid of much analysis. Learning about applying critical thinking in the course work made me understand issues differently.
What struck me was how information on comprehending the literacy skills helps an individual to learn. In the future, having critical thinking skills will be essential to allow me to think quickly on my feet, assess problems, and get the best solutions. I had been struggling with misunderstanding, lack of detailed knowledge, and wanting to know the answer before applying critical thinking. I have picked the following tips that will always be helpful: becoming more self-aware, developing foresight, practicing active listening, and evaluating existing evidence.
