CRITICAL THINKING SKILLS AND DISPOSITIONS IN THE EDUCATIONAL CONTEXT: DIFFERENT VIEWS
Main Article Content
Abstract
This review article presents an overview of the cognitive and operative dimension of
critical thinking and, in turn, of this type of thinking from a pedagogical approach to
develop it in an educational context. To do the above, a review of different articles is made
with which it is possible to clarify that the skills are identifiable, teachable and are learned;
and that by themselves they have a cognitive component, but that this must be accompanied
by the non-cognitive (dispositions of thought). Likewise, it is established that there is no
universal or exclusive concept of critical thinking, because each author defines it depending
on the skills and the respective threads with which they relate. In this sense, the following
skills are proposed to work in the university educational context: analyze, synthesize, solve
problems and evaluate, which can be applicable to any context: personal, professional or
vital.
