Our brains process more information each day than any generation in history, making critical thinking one of the most valuable skills we can develop. This course invites you to strengthen your ability to use critical thinking skills and make sound decisions by adopting generative artificial intelligence to support and enhance your reasoning processes.
By implementing the practical, actionable framework presented in this course, you’ll discover how AI can help unpack complex ideas, highlight hidden assumptions, and facilitate the confidence and clarity of considering multiple perspectives.
This course will help you strengthen your ability to evaluate, assign meaning to, discount, or reject information from a wide range of public and private sources, and better make informed decisions in both your professional and personal life.
This module introduces Critical Thinking (CT), exploring its history, definition, and evolution. It explains the CT process: Recognizing assumptions, questioning evidence, developing and evaluating support, and assessing outcomes. You will adopt a foundational Critical Thinking Framework to analyze information rationally, integrate it into your thinking, and apply it effectively.
