Critical thinking is reasonable

reflective thinking that is focused on deciding what to

believe or do Ennis (1996)

Critical thinking can be interpreted as a

dimension of thinking that is guided by

criteria and standards to arrive at a

discerning, thoughtful, and skillful judgment on

something.(Lopez, 2014)

The critical thinking consists of two main

components: dispositions and

abilities. The acquisition of

disposition motivates the learners to acquire

the abilities (Norris & Ennis, 1989)
