How Much Do We Really Want Young People to Think Critically?
26. September, 2024,10:30 - 12:00
What does critical thinking actually mean? How much space is there for critical thinking within the school environment? Do schools truly encourage critical thinking?
The workshop will first introduce the concept of critical thinking and examine its key elements. It will then focus on critical thinking as a socially reflective and self-reflective practice, exploring its presence within the Slovenian education system. Through identified examples of good practice, students will look for parallels within their own school experiences. The workshop will conclude with young people’s proposals on how to introduce more critical thinking into the school environment, which would in turn encourage greater youth engagement in active citizenship.
