Before we can explore this, it seems a good idea to back up and explore first: what exactly is critical thinking? Why is it such a hot topic currently?
Critical thinking is the process of thinking systematically, utilizing cognitive skills to listen, learn, think, understand, question, retain, justify, and evaluate. Critical thinking has less to do with intelligence and more to do with a process of sifting through and evaluating new information.

There's a nip in the air and the leaves are turning golden, what better time to check out Calgary's gallery exhibitions?
We've put together a list of five exhibitions that will give you a taste of the incredible talent than our city has to offer - but don't take our word for it!
Christopher Savage’s work, along with three other artists, is currently on exhibition in the Window Galleries at Arts Commons, and available now for online 3D tours. The design surrounding Savage’s artwork is logical and intuitive, wanting to draw the viewer in and help them look closer at the network of lines and gestural strokes spanning across his work. But how does such intention translate when the Window Galleries—where Savage along with many other RBC Emerging Visual Artists are showing—are closed to the public? Technology steps in.
Ready to see something new? Want to stretch your theatrical boundaries? Maybe learn a bit about yourself? You need to stop by and check out the TD Amplify Cabaret series. These free no-holds-barred cabaret style performances celebrate a groundswell of Calgarian artistic talent from outside the ‘mainstream’ and you’ll be able to watch it virtually, from the comfort of your own home.
