| 520 | 3 | |a Critical thinking, a way of thinking logically for making clear our understanding and decisions, is a crucial element for all education reform. For this reason, instructors in all levels of study and disciplines must teach higher order thinking skills because they demand many benefits for students such as being long-learners, problem solvers, and discoverers of new things. In the teaching-learning English as a foreign language, it is necessary that students start to develop higher order thinking skills as including analyzing, synthesizing, and evaluating, instead of exercising only the basic skills of language. Besides, it is profitable that a person be able to express clearly about any topic in his/her native and foreign language, especially in English that is the universal language. This work will teach students to differentiate facts from opinions, identify logical fallacies, preview, evaluate arguments, reflect on different topics, outline, summarize, paraphrase, make concept maps, compare and contrast, establish causes and effects of any action, classify, etc. All these strategies help students to foster critical thinking skills, but in a foreign language, it cannot be easy to do this, because students may have limited vocabulary to express in their target language, or they may be accustomed to learn anything by memorizing | |
