Critical thinking is about having logical reasons and evidence for your reasonable conclusions. It is a primary skill in academic subjects and for everyday decision-making.

· Reasoning correctly to understand

· Identifying and asking questions to clarify different perspectives and to produce more effective solutions.

In my opinion, this is an extremely important skill to understand and be able to use in everyday life and your education life. Life is made up of problems of all severities. In order to succeed, you need to be able to use critical thinking to problem-solve.

As a conclusion, I would like to share with you a TED-Talk that I watched on youtube and which I found really useful, and I would like you to benefit.
