Unlocking Critical Thinking

Peter Lucantoni

Summary

In this workshop we will identify why Critical Thinking is important and how we can empower learners with the Critical Thinking skills they need to approach academic tasks and make informed decisions in their lives. Critical Thinking, a vital 21st-century skill, is deeply integrated in Cambridge's Unlock 3rd Edition learning framework. It involves a focused, analytical approach to understanding information and making reasoned judgments.
