The Study Skills Handbook
Criticality is an ability that we all need and can nurture. It helps us to uncover the ways things work and why things occur the way they do. It helps us understand the world around us, to predict more accurately what might happen in future, make wiser decisions, keep things in perspective, act fairly, and resolve problems creatively. Critical thinking can be analytical, refl ective and creative.
