What Is Critical Thinking? Essay Question/english

Find    three sources that discuss critical thinking. One source should be    from the assigned and/or optional readings, (course    material),  and the    other two should be found through your own research. Read the three    sources, and consider how they define critical thinking.

In    300-500 words, explain your own personal definition of critical thinking. Keep the following guidelines in mind:

1. Select      a direct quote from one of your resources to include in your  explanation.
2. A      reference page that documents the three sources you found (and any      other resources you used) is required. Remember, all outside      sources must be cited both in-text and on your reference  page.
3. The      articles you found in your research may influence your definition,      but your own ideas should be evident. In other words, your process      should be: a) Read some definitions and descriptions of critical      thinking; b) Comprehend or digest the information; and c) Write      your own definition of critical thinking.

(Note:    Do not simply reword the definitions you read. Consider a new way to    explain what you understand critical thinking to be.)
