留学生写作：如何培养批判性思维?做assignment的过程中经常会因为论文欠缺critical thinking拿低分。那么什么是critical thinking?如何体现出自己是有critical thinking的呢?

三部曲的模型了解一下:

1、描述性回答

critical thinking并不是凭空捏造出来的，它是建立在前人的文献基础上的。所以在阅读一篇文献的时候，我们应该问以下几个问题

*Who wrote this?

*What is it about?

*When was it written?

*What is the aim of the article?

如果这篇文献是在提出问题/讨论问题的，还应该问以下几个问题：

*What is this problem about?

*Who does it involve or affect?

*When and where is this happening?

2、分析 Analysis

分析的过程可以帮助检验文章所阐述的调查方法，过程，以及因果关系。

*How was the research conducted?

*Why are these theories discussed?

*What are the alternative methods and theories?

如果这是一篇议论文。适用的分析型问题有：

*What are the contributing factors to the problem?

*How might one factor impact another?

*What if one factor is removed or altered?

从完成分析这一步开始，你的critical thinking就不再停留在表面，而是有了更深入的讨论。

3、评估 evaluation

最后一个阶段是对这篇文献，以及自己在前两个阶段对这个文献给出的分析回答，进行评估。

*What do I think about this?

*How is this relevant to my assignment?

*How does this compare to other research I have read?
