              Critical thinking clarifies goals, examines assumptions, discerns hidden values, evaluates evidence, accomplishes actions, and assesses conclusions.

"Critical" as used in the expression "critical thinking" connotes involving skillful judgment as to truth, merit, etc. "Critical" in this context does not mean "disapproval" or "negative." There are many positive uses of critical thinking, for example formulating a workable solution to a complex personal problem, deliberating as a group about what course of action to take, or analyzing the assumptions and the quality of the methods used in scientifically arriving at a reasonable level of confidence about a given hypothesis.To add further clarification on what is meant by thinking critically, Richard Paul (1995)

Characteristics of a Global Classroom	How can you make your classroom a global community?
Global perspective is integrated throughout the school curriculum not just in social studies.	I will think of the best thing to do to enhance the global perspective. I will integrate in the entire subject in the curriculum the global perspective.
International focus courses are developed in areas such as anthropology, regional history, geography, global or world studies, foreign language study, world religions, ethnic group studies, international business, music, and art.	I will ask my students to collect or make an research about in this topic. To enhance their social and cultural ability.
Internationalizing instructional methods and materials emphasize intercultural interaction and culturally appropriate methods of instruction and assessment. Partnership programs with other schools and countries can also be developed.	I will provide more challenging activities for my students for them to enhance their ability. Like a survey, investigation or research. And give my student to deal with other and experience different cultures and beliefs.
Encouraging international travel as an important part of one’s education	Using instructional materials I will used pictures, videos and other materials that gives my student idea in such topic or discussions. I will relate the things that we discuss in the real situation or in the present time.
