Gita DasBender, “Critical Thinking in College Writing: From the Personal to the Academic” |
| Summarize the article — include your reaction, thoughts, anything to help you remember its claims. 100 to 150 words |
Critical thinking is something most writers have to do when writing an academic paper. I know that I have a hard time with critical thinking sometimes because it is a little bit like comprehending. However, Dabner well explains the process of critical thinking. I think the criticism part would be the easiest part of the process because it seems easier to find something to rebuttal or to agree with in the writing. Now when I do critical thinking, I am going to remember that I just have to analyze and find valid points in the argument that I can discuss and do my own research on. |
