Critical thinking...the awakening of the intellect to the study of itself.

 Base on my research

A statement by Michael Scriven & Richard Paul for the
{presented at the 8th Annual International Conference on Critical Thinking and Education Reform, Summer 1987}.

Critical thinking is the intellectually disciplined process of actively and skillfully conceptualizing, applying, analyzing, synthesizing, and/or evaluating information gathered from, or generated by, observation, experience, reflection, reasoning, or communication, as a guide to belief and action. In its exemplary form, it is based on universal intellectual values that transcend subject matter divisions: clarity, accuracy, precision, consistency, relevance, sound evidence, good reasons, depth, breadth, and fairness.
                                             For me being a student is a big priority and responsibility. Once a student open his/her mind in discussion it really needs a critical thinking so that he/she could easily get the main point or the central idea of what he/ she is reading.I can say that I am a critical thinker because when I read a book I usually read it twice because I am not a speed analyzer and reading it twice will help me to understand well the scenario or  text. When I encountered difficult and unfamiliar word I used to consult dictionary so that I can relate with what I am reading. 
                                             In writing I also develop my critical thinking  because when I am making an article like essay or making poems, I always look for the correct grammar and apply it so that it will not look like dull.
