1. Critical Thinking and Media Literacy

-


Critical thinking is important to make judgments about information sources and form your own arguments. It emphasizes a rational, objective, and self-aware approach that can help you identify credible sources and strengthen your conclusions.

Critical thinking is important in all disciplines and at all stages of the research process. The types of evidence used in the sciences and the humanities may differ, but critical thinking skills are relevant to both.

In academic writing, critical thinking can help you determine if a source:

It is free of research bias.

Provide evidence to support your research findings.

Consider alternative viewpoints.

Outside of academia, critical thinking goes hand-in-hand with information literacy to help you form rational opinions and engage independently and critically with popular media.


Examples of critical thinking

Critical thinking can help you identify reliable sources of information that you can cite in your research paper. You can also guide your own investigative methods and inform your own arguments.

Outside of the area of ​​learning, critical thinking can help you be aware of your own and others' biases and assumptions.
