IMPROVING STUDENTS' ABILITY TO THINK CRITICALLY AND ANALYTICALLY

Abstract

Critical analytical thinking skills are crucial in teaching students. These skills enable students to analyze complex problems, break them down into manageable parts, and develop effective solutions. In teaching, it empowers students to tackle academic problems and real-world problems with confidence. By fostering critical analytical thinking, teachers help students think for themselves, question assumptions, and explore different perspectives. This independence increases their ability to learn independently and adapt to new situations. Critical analytical thinking equips students with the tools to objectively evaluate information, weigh evidence, and make informed decisions. This is important both in academic settings and in everyday life, where people are constantly faced with choices. Developing critical analytical thinking skills in teaching not only improves academic performance, but also equips students with the tools they need to thrive in an increasingly complex and interconnected world.
