Critical Thinking“To be critical is not to be "negative" or even to "disagree.” Rather, critical thinking refers to a process of reflecting deeply: in thinking critically we try to shed greater light on an idea, unpack its implicit assumptions, and build through distancing and recapitulation a larger, constructive view.The essence of criticism consists not of disagreement with the text, but of distance from the text.” Dr. Martha Reineke (UNI)
