Week: 5
Critical thinking

Something that call my attention about this article is how the technology like internet can help to students to think critically, and how the technology helps them to become active intellects and how students are able to understand ideas, to analyze, give their own conclusion and solve problems. On the other hand, Intrinsic is the abilities that students acquire along the learning´s process where learners acquire new knowledge in different way. The students start to learn intrinsically. For example:  they are independent, analytical and curious. Also, teachers have to look for the way of that each students learn intrinsically using different methods. One of the tool that learners can use is the internet because students can study themselves without the teachers and they can look for their benefits how increase their knowledge. Furthermore, there are a lot of challenge for teachers in some case not all the students acquire the ability to think intrinsically, but teachers must help to students to feel comfortable, to believe in their capacity to learn. Teachers have to ask questions that look for answers that help to the development of everyone. Also, I believe that students can use computers for learn the higher order cognitive skills of analysis synthesis, and evaluation.

  1. I totally agree with you Tatiana when you say that teachers face a great amount of challenges to make and foster the critical thinking in students. I think that The critical thinking is a very difficult skill to acquire because learners should remove bias and misinformation to focus only in the reliable evidence they have to figure out what is essential to learn or not. Something I want to emphasis is that educators will not break the barriers of the challenges if they do not find out a way to motivate learners in the classrooms. For example: Teachers to foster the critical thinking in their students should formulate questions about what students need to learn, and then try to obtain relevant information for students regarding the topic. When having it, students should be let to analyze the concepts and interpret it, to get their own assumption
