Critical Thinking Skills

A process which analyses, interprets and evaluates information, problems, concepts, and values.

Critical thinking is a high-level skill which requires an inquisitive nature to drill down into previously unconsidered areas, an ability to engage with, and reflect on, contrasting opinions or positions, with the depth of reflection often being related to the complexity of the issue.

The outcome of critical thinking would typically be enriched insight to provide much better-informed, as well as more impartial and balanced opinion into the subject matter.
