<br />
=Critical thinking and reading=<br />
<br />
Critical thinking does not mean to attack or criticize, but is an intellectual process of thinking carefully and clearly from different perspectives, using evidence to support any judgments you make. <br />
<br />
Everybody reads differently: fast or slow, thinking about what they are reading while they are going along, or thinking about it afterwards, or not thinking much at all! The instructions and materials below provide guidance and tips on how to read "actively": defining for what purpose you are reading, and asking questions, making comments and recording your responses and ideas while you read. These strategies ensure that you really make the most of the time you spend reading. <br />
<br />
== The method of reading ==<br />
if it should be really efficient, it is necessary to consider different ways of reading:<br />
* '''reading to remember''' what is required to know (for remembering facts, for example)<br />
* this is different from '''reading for writing a text''' on a selected topic when somebody needs to understand the way issues are argued.<br />
<br />
Critical reading is crucial for understanding “across” disciplinary boundaries, and exploring different disciplinary backgrounds. This skill is necessary also for active engagement in the issue of globalisation or any other issue – whether theoretical analysis of thoughts (and developing new ones) or more practical use of the ideas in activities, that are in coherence with personal worldviews.<br />

== Reading and writing for "Critical Thinking" concept ==<br />
is based on the theory of active learning and pedagogical constructivism. The aim of the teaching process according to these theories is not only to provide students some knowledge (and require it back afterwards), but also to develop competences needed for their independent work in the knowledge field.<br />
<br />
=== "Three-stage learning cycle" ===<br />
provides the basic framework for learning process that supports student’s own judgement. In the first phase students are encouraged to consider their assumptions about a topic and to frame their questions about it. Then comes the second phase, in which students remain active as they inquire and examine the topic – they really study it from provided resources. The third "reflection" phase encourages students to compare what they have learned with their prior assumptions. According to it, the model of learning is called E – R – R<br />
* '''evocation''' – students realize what they already know about the chosen topic or what they think about it; at the same time they should also be able to formulate their questions and those areas of the topic they feel ambiguous about and which they would like to find answers to in the following stages.<br />
* '''realization of meaning''' – confronting the student's original concept of the topic with provided sources of information<br />
* '''reflection''' – students re-formulate their understanding of the topic with regard to the newly acquired information and the discussions with their colleagues, they fully realize what they have learnt and are able to go beyond it, contribute to it in their own way.<br />
