Identify this:The purpose of this is to encourage high levels of critical thinking so that processes and resources are appropriate?

Critical thinking involves questioning and evaluating information. Critical and creative thinking both contribute to our ability to solve problems in a variety of contexts. Evaluating information is a complex, but essential, process. You can use the CRAAP test to help determine if sources and information are reliable.

The key critical thinking skills are: analysis, interpretation, inference, explanation, self-regulation, open-mindedness, and problem-solving.

Critical thinking skills are important because they enable students “to deal effectively with social, scientific, and practical problems” (Shakirova, 2007, p. 42). Simply put, students who are able to think critically are able to solve problems effectively. Merely having knowledge or information is not enough.
