The subject is complex; several different definitions exist, which generally include the rational, skeptical, and unbiased analysis or evaluation of factual evidence. When putting it into my own words and how I view it, critical thinking is the act of deep rooted thought, it’s you thinking about something intently and also connecting it to evidence. Critical thinking is the ability to analyze and interpret an idea in a way that’s well thought out and not broad. The interesting part of critical thinking is it can be defined according to the person, you can articulate it in any way you deem fit. In order to properly think critically you must be open minded and acceptring of any thoughts or facts you may encounter, and you must be able to delve deep into them in order to support or go against them.</span>
