Based on my research and the videos I have watched, critical thinking has many definitions. Yet, I came across one that well defines critical thinking, the art of analyzing and evaluating thinking with a view to improving it. According to the speakers, critical thinking is important because it helps us understand ourselves and others around us. However, instead of being taught what to think, we should know how to think so we can be adaptive and innovate to be able to solve problems. I agree with the speakers because when we understand life better we become more opened minded, and learn new lessons which us grow as person.

I agree with you; being open-minded is one of the skills that helps us grow as people. Listening to everyone’s opinions without judging allows you to see how other people see the world and how they interpret it. It also allows you to see your own and the other person’s biases.
